This document summarizes the Corona SDK, a 2D cross-platform game engine. It can code games once and deploy to multiple platforms like iOS and Android. It uses the Lua scripting language, and provides tools for graphics, physics, monetization, and publishing games to app stores. The SDK is free to try and costs $199-349 per platform for commercial use. It allows rapid development of games that can be run on desktop simulators and published on mobile.
