Is it possible to do game development for the Amiga in an emulator?
 
I'm thinking of getting AmigaForever Plus, and I was wondering if there is anything else I would have to get to get into game development, such as development ide and etc. Could someone point me in the right direction?
 
I heard about Amiga OS 4.1 and found out, that it is not possible to run OS 4.1 on UAE or WinUAE. Is there another route I could take to develop for OS 4.1?
 
I don't own a PowerPC, just an Intel PC.


If you want to develop your games in C/C++ then AmiDevCpp is an option:

If you don't have an OS4 Machine, developing for OS4 is very very difficult, because you can't debug your programs. You can better develop your games for OS3.x and try it in WinUAE. Developing and Debugging for AROS is even easier.
