Cocos vs AndEngine for android [closed]

Question

I want to make a game using Tiled Map Editor and I want to move the character around using a D-Pad for moving the character

So I'm wondering which Engine would be better AndEngine or Cocos2d

Keep in mind i'm a beginner at this so I'd like to stare at a lot of tutorials. :-D

Thanks

Answer 1

Both engines supprot loading TMX map quite easy and input from D-PAD. So if your requirements are only that, there is no big difference. Just use what you familiar with.

Answer 2

Cocos2d-android don´t have support anymore. You must use cocos2d-x, cross-plataform, use JNI to use c++ code. More info HERE.

Cocos2d-x is great to create games, but i have not use AndEngine never.
