Corona the only 2D platform with realtime device testing?

Hi

Just started up with Corona and are trying different things with the very new realtime plugin of Gamesparks. Now I get this advert all the time about Corona being the only 2D dev platform with real-time device testing. 

Just would like to point out that that is very much not the case. Been developing in Defold for many years which is a great 2D platform as well offering this feature flawlessly. 

It’s a detail I know but feels weird to come to a new platform reading that.

Hi, andreas90

As I know, Gideros Studio provides a real time simulator as well, though not as feature-rich as that by Corona SDK.

Since these Lua-based frameworks offer different APIs, switching from one framework to another means almost re-writing your

project from scratch.  Before digging into one framework, browsing it’s API to make sure enough support for your project.

Take myself as an example, I am implementing a business-type app; Corona SDK provides more UI widgets than other Lua-based frameworks currently.

BTW, Defold website looks good; I might check the framework later.
