Development tools are essential for any game development; however, they have always been low priority in game design and the pre-development analysis stage. The necessity for these tools is realized when they are required.
We have discussed all the mandatory tools for Android development only. But modern age game development demands flexibility across hardware platforms as well as operating systems. This is where cross-platform development engines come into the picture. These tools help the development process to become faster and more efficient; however, this comes at the cost of a little drop in performance and a larger build size. In most cases, developers have limited control over the cross-platform engine, but full control can be gained if the game is developed on native SDKs.
Development tools are not just useful for development and debugging—they are very efficient in optimizing the game along with data protection, which might not have a direct impact on games. A good developer...
