AndEngine is a set of libraries, made by Nicolas Gramlich, made to program 2D videogames for android devices through the OpenGL ES 2.0 technology. It is easy to use, has multiple features and is open source!
These past few weeks I have been working on a port of one of the most popular and powerful game engines for Android. AndEngine.
My port, RSAndEngine (RootSoft AndEngine) wraps this library and makes tons of methods available to the B4A platform,
which makes Basic4Android even more powerful then it was before.
Making games with or without Basic4Android has never been easier!
II. Tutorial

Extract the libraries and put them in your additional library folder.
Then download the attachments in this thread and copy them to your additional library folder too.
IV. Version
The current version can be found here:

Note that we are still in a final beta version and the first update that will come will be in end september/begin october. I haven't had time so far to release it
V. Donation
I planned to make RSAndEngine a chargeable library because it took me blood, sweat and tears to make ( ), but after consideration, I came to the conclusion to make this library for free and share it with the community because B4A doesn't have a game framework/engine yet, and i just love this community.
However, I'm open for donations, and anyone can support me by donating any amount of money to my Paypal address. It can be found in my signature below.
Kind regards and happy game development,
Tomas
