With this rapid prototyping tool you can make almost any game prototype in minutes. As the name suggests it wont be pretty, but it will be very easy to fiddle with.

With only 30-40 lines of straight-forward Python code you can make a basic Asteroids, Breakout or even Minecraft! Youll be amazed by how easy it is.

As all game developers know, the most important aspect of developing a game is the feel of the game. The controls. The timing. With Trabant you can explore your game mechanics first so that you know what to implement before starting, instead of tweaking it in the end of your development process (which often is a nightmare).

Creating a prototype is very quick, and starting the simulations takes just fractions of a second, be it on PC, Mac or iOS. This makes for very fast iterations cycles.

Yes, Trabant is also available on PC and Mac, and normally you would build and run your prototype there first. When youre done, you simply synchronize it with your iPhone or iPad and test it on the actual target device. Synchronization and running is also done in just fractions of a second. Switching back and forth between device and computer development is seamless.

So you can bring your prototype on your device when youre on the go, tweak it on the bus, then simply synchronize again when youre back home (to pull your tweaks back into the computer).

Trabant is instantly gratifying and lends itself well to indie game developers. But it is also a fantastic tool for anyone who wants to learn basic 3D/physics game development, as well as schools where the students can get a thrill from making cool simulations instead of dull printfs.
