Thanks, Andrew! I'm very intersted in Qt UI, and I don't want XAML as GUI for my game. We choosen Qt Quick because Qt Quick :). We have experient with cocos2d-x but we changed to Qt because Qt is fully cross-platform, stable, cute code model and special QML. But C# calling is mandatory in my company, because many our modules and frameworks was implemented in C# or must call C# API, then we very interested in CX.
