What tools do one needs to develop these games?

[Elena]

Hello,
I'm completely new to game development and very curious about what kind of tools people use to create, for example, this kind of games:
http://montessorium.com/geography/
or
Angry Birds?
Does Qt have tools for these?
I know Qt has OpenGL module for 3D, but is there anything for 2D?
Thank you!

QML is great for interactive 2D apps :) http://qt.digia.com/Product/qt-quick/

Hi Elena,
you might consider using V-Play, which is free to download at http://v-play.net.

It is specially made for 2D games and adds gaming-specific components in QML for games like Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, Cut the Rope, Doodle Jump or even strategy games like Tower Defense. For the latter two there are open-source demo game examples, included in the game engine SDK download. An overview of the demo games is available here: http://doc.v-play.net/beta/vplay-examples.html

Cheers,
Chris
