hmm.. difficult to say how it compares.
Hollywood is in fact a multimedia oriented programming language. Hollywood Designer is an add on / graphical frontend to hollywood (to make slideshows, some kind of software etc). I could compare Hollywood Designer to Scala infochannel available on amgia, and Hollywood Designer is of course much more powerful.
Our main reasons for using Hollywood + Designer are the following:
1) It is available on amigaOS (making it fun to work with)
2) Hollywood is able to create working executables to most platforms
3) Beeing able to communicate directly with the developer of Hollywood - if we need new features in Hollywood Andreas is very helpful in making them a reality.
4) Designer is easy to use, and is very powerful once you get the hang of it
5) The sofware gets a lot of features with a simple click.. like a very powerful scaling-engine, expire-dates, activation-codes +++
I have used Designer for several years now - the latest versions have been very good! I have not bothered to to look for similars programs on pc or macOS
