We have some unbelievably exciting news to share with you all today. Our brand new app/game development software Open Dev Kit is now leaving behind its Alpha phase, and officially entering the public Beta stage! This marks a significant milestone and step forward in making Open Dev Kit a powerful development tool, thanks to your invaluable feedback! A lot of other things have also been happening lately behind the scenes, so keep on reading to learn more and get hyped.
Alpha to Beta: A Major Milestone
Ever since its early Alpha, Open Dev Kit has come a flabbergastingly long way in many different aspects — from functionality, stability, accessibility and so much more.
Our team has been relentless at work to bring excellence to Open Dev Kit, while the feedback we received from everyone has also been instrumental in shaping it into what it is now, and what it's slowly but steadily becoming. We've implemented countless features that greatly enhanced the development experience — from 3D to physics, to even Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools — and made significant improvements to performance and overall stability.
Demos now available!
To showcase some of the amazing capabilities of Open Dev Kit, we've put together a couple demos for you to check out, and get a taste of what you can do as well (although do note, that's barely scratching the surface). Ready up now — a 3D platformer plus a 2D isometric RPG — and we've got a few more on the way too!

New Pricing Based on Community Feedback
You asked, we listened and we delivered. We went through all our available tiers and tried reformulating them to give you the best value you can possibly get. To summarize we've lowered pricing, reduced tier count, and enhanced benefits.
Specifically, the Start-Up tier has been phased out as it was a bit redundant, and for Premium and Business we greatly reduced the cost. Additionally, some benefits will now benefit you even MORE, like maximum cloud builds getting double in almost every tier, and now you can save 20% if you'd like to go with a yearly plan. You save us time, we save you money.
And remember — "No Royalties. No Income Limits. No Distribution Fees.". We stand by this motto and plan on keeping up this policy of ours. What you earn is YOUR business only!
