| | Otaku No Zoku - Product Review - DarkBASIC Professional |
 | | DarkBASIC Professional is specifically created for manipulating the DirectX API in a simple and easy way. | | | Lack of professional production features could make it difficult to integrate in to a professional development environment. | | | Cartography Shop, v3 to be released soon, is a full fledged 3D map and level editor that allows a designer to create levels, placing objects and entities within the level and calculating static lighting. |

| | Amazon.co.uk: DarkBasic Professional: Software |
| | DarkBASIC Professional is easily the most buggy peace of software I have ever used. | | | An extensive command set, which automatically operates key functions means that the inputting of lines and lines of code is eradicated meaning completion of a game can be simple and quick. | | | This is possible, because DarkBASIC Pro supports the most up-to-date DirectX features from the latest graphics hardware. |

| | The Game Creators Newsletter - Issue 20 - August 2004 |
| | This version of DarkBASIC Professional is ideal for those of you who don't need the printed manual and can get by with the built-in help files. | | | The version of DarkBASIC Professional you will receive is 5.4 - the latest at the time of writing - so you won't even need to upgrade it. | | | It's a realistic computer simulation of the desktop-toy classic and is timer based with real life values of gravity, time and length. |

| | DarkBASIC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The language is a structured form of BASIC and is similar to Amos on the Amiga. | | | The sole purpose of the language was game creation using Microsoft's DirectX 3D library for graphics but is well rounded enough to do almost any programming task. | | | DarkBASIC is a commercial game creation programming language released by the United Kingdom based company The Game Creators. |

| | Amazon.com: DarkBASIC: Software |
| | DarkBASIC is a programming language that allows users to write games with the speed and power of DirectX and Direct3D. | | | We first took DarkBASIC out for a spin with a simple text program, and then moved on to creating a simple 3-D game (unfortunately without conclusion). | | | This box is the FULL package [...] The software is not as fully supported as the professional version, but for a hobbiest, it is perfect. |

| | Included within the DarkBASIC package is Microsoft's Direct X: this powerful utility handles all the hardware in your PC, such as the graphics card and sound card, allowing you more time to concentrate on creating the game. | | | If, like me, you enjoy the challenge of solving problems, rather than the atmosphere and plot creation of game creating, DarkBasic is really good. | | | I have good knowledge of structure and the works of programming. |
