I recently looked at Bubble Ball’s website, and it says Built With Corona SDK. I’ve never heard of Corona, and, from what I read, it lets you create games for devices with very little code. I’m not convinced. Which should I go with? Xcode or Corona SDK?
EDIT:
To clarify, I would like to know which is better for building a good, solid iPhone game.
It’s really a matter of how much risk are you willing to take.
XCode may take longer, but you know it’ll get accepted and new iOS versions won’t completely hose it up.
Corona will write less code getting to 90%. That last 10% may be a real pain though. If Apple comes out with iOS XXX and everything breaks. You’re waiting on Corona to update their SDK until you can update your app. Or if Apple releases a new feature, you’ll wait for the Corona update before you can take advantage of it.
Personally, I’m a native XCode guy. These frameworks do have their place though.
