If you love modern games - INSTEAD can give you something new. Features of the INSTEAD engine: * portability (Unix, Windows, Android, OS X...); * ease of game development (using Lua); * flexibility; In addition to its main purpose, the INSTEAD engine is currently used to write games and other genres.
