MARGE is a game engine for mobile augmented reality (AR) environment based on iPhone. It includes integrated support for optimal graphics performance, networking, shading, resource management, sound and music. Mobile developer can learn how to develop high quality 3D interactive mobile AR game using our proposed developmental tool. Several highlight features of MARGE: 3D Graphic performance optimization: The performance of processing 3D scenes and objects in a game environment is a vital factor that affects the efficiency of a game engine. MARGE supports OpenGL ES 1.1, 3D graphics library which runs on the embedded chipset on different phones. A 3D model loader by using POD, OBJ and 3DS format allows developer porting different models easily. Networking support is an essential feature for a Mobile AR game. MARGE supports multiplayer interacting each other in mobile AR environment using TCP/IP or blue-tooth.
