Summary

Award-winning 3D software company, Caspian Learning, today unveiled that the latest version of their exciting 3D sims & games creation software will be completely free to use. The new version of the software will remove practically all of the barriers to simulation and game design that the beginner or novice designer faces and will save new users $4999 over the old retail price.

Caspian Learning unveiled the new version of their award-winning Thinking Worlds 3D simulation & games creation technology today. The new version will be available to download and use for free - forever - which is a huge shift from the previous retail price of $4999. The new free version of the software will give users the option to pay for upgrades which add even more advanced features.

The software is the leading, free simulation & games design software, with over 10,000 users globally, that has been specifically designed to enable complete beginner and novice designers (as well as more advanced users) to create sims & games for use on standalone PCs, web browsers or mobile devices and get them distributed rapidly.

The core concept behind the entire design of Thinking Worlds 3.5 is that it is able to remove traditionally hard to overcome game design barriers; such as the need to have a deep understanding of programming language, the difficulty of adding new 3D art and the problems associated with publishing games. With Thinking Worlds 3.5, sims & games are easy to create, objects are easy to import and finished projects are easy to publish as programs ready to run on standalone PCs, web browsers or even iPhones and iPads.

Lee Rushworth, Marketing Executive for Caspian Learning, said that "the new version of Thinking Worlds will make the creation of sims & games for browser-based and mobile distribution more accessible to novice and beginning game designers than anything else currently available."
