Hi,

Can anyone recommend some good 2d game engines? I'm taking a class right now which has forced me to re-learn C/C++ after not using it for over a year. I also have experience in Java and C#. I'm just looking for something to play around with that will help me get back into programming. Thanks

Blitzmax is a pretty good one, I have used it a bit. It made drawing objects to the screen really easy. Only thing Im not real fond of is it doesn't have the ability to step through the code like you can using a microsoft IDE like you get with C++ and I found that caused debugging a bit harder as your code grows. That being said you can buy it for like 80$.
