We created the Lite version of DarkBASIC especially for you to test out DarkBASIC for an extended period of time. Although you cannot save an EXE file from the Lite version - all other features are fully intact including the complete on-line help, examples and access to the full command set. It's an extremely cheap way to test the "game programming" waters.

The Lite version is distributed electronically via a download link when you order, so you don't have to wait for a package to arrive in the post. You can upgrade from the Lite to the full electronic version at any time.
