Ultimate tool for PSP game development

Virtools is a game development tool for the PSP (not only that, see their webpage to know more about different products bearing the same name). I recently saw the demonstration movie on YouTube and was hooked :



If only it was available free of charge... Unfortunately, this is being made by a company and it probably won't be free. Still, it would be great if there was an option to make it available to PSP homebrew scene for some reasonable price. For example a license for non-profit game creation (meaning you can make free homebrew Indie games with it, but you cannot sell them), perhaps with limited features. That could be PSP's equivalent of Microsoft's XNA, a real revolution.

I am daydreaming, I know. Sony won't allow that and Dassault Systemes wouldn't probably be interested. A tempting vision, nevertheless.

Virtools is great but the only down side is English tutorials and help is thin on the ground as its a French video tutorials supplied have no voice over so you don't really learn what the building blocks do.
