Rather surprised LibGDX didn't do this sooner. One of the niceties of LibGDX was that it was 102% free for all platforms. But then RoboVM closed source and suddenly making an iOS game stopped being free.
(although LibGDX was able to finagle a free license for small developers).
And I wish I could say I'm surprised that Oracle's not jumping in to buy this tech, as it seems like it would be a terrific addition to the Java toolset. But adding innovation to Java is, to say the least, not Oracle's strong suit.

- aganders3 10y agoLibGDX is made mostly by Mario Zechner, who also happens to work on/for RoboVM.
- badlogic 10y agolibGDX is definitely not mostly made by me. Truck factor and all :) https://github.com/libgdx/libgdx/graphs/contributors https://github.com/libgdx/libgdx/graphs/contributors
- eropple 10y agoMan, having a 2:1 deleted:added ratio is pretty amazing, though. Good luck with whatever you end up doing next though, seriously, whether it's libgdx-related or not. Y'all are good people, you do good stuff.
- aganders3 10y agoD'oh - I'm blushing. What I meant was that you do much awesome work on it. My apologies to the other important contributors! In any case, thanks! I've read your book (Beginning Android Games) and used libgdx (though nothing finished or published) and enjoyed both!
