Godot

Now with version 4, it is the most complete and universal engine in the world of FOSS.

It is small, efficient, and has a helpful community.

There are two versions of the engine which are currently supported.

Now there is the 4th generation, which has been redesigned in many ways, with Vulkan as the main graphics backend, and the gdScript which was redesigned, faster and more reliable than before.

The 3rd series, which is the old version, is now mainly in maintenance mode. God for older computers with integrated graphics but it will get too many new features like the 4.x.

Some people say that there is a lack of documentation, but it was true at the beginning of the project. Now the problem does not exist.

The cons, sometimes due to new features there is the possibility, that the project will break with the new version of the engine and there will be no possibility of reversing. But in the end, it is possible to stick with one version for longer.

Ren'Py

The engine which is a synonym for Visual Novel in FOSS world. It was made for it in 2005 and still rocks in their genre. It is made with python. Now like in Godot there is two version one for older projects with only bug fixes and new version 8. Because it is made for VN, and only for this, it is easier for artist and script writers to make games in it. On their forums you can find tutorials for writing and how to make everything from idea to deployment the game.

Unity

The engine which make the indie gamedev on another level of popularity. Low entry, 2D and 3D capabilities, popular scripting with C#, many types of exports to other platforms, even Nintendo started with them to say hello for indie devs on 3DS.  From the other side problem with licensing and with linux runtime. It is true that it will be easier to make build for windows and use proton or wine to run than native varsion. But the company behind are trying to make it easier. Even after last problems with runtime and licensing fee which made big exodus of users that ship is still on the water. It is solid engine, nothing less nothing more. But with another year some people could think that it is easier to develop on windows version than native. Links Website:  Unity Download:  Linux Hub download Community:  Blog  |  Forum

GB Studio

Another retro engine, but this time limited to one platform and not the genre. It was created for making roms for first Nintendo handheld. Due to block programming it is easy to make games. Due to possible export in from for the device so it can be run on it. But due to enhancements the limits were removed and users can made bigger games than 32K. In the end it is nice engine for everyone which gave ability to made games for handheld. Due to nature of the engine it has predefined genre of games, but they can be connected in one. So nothing can stop you from making your own zelda/pokemon/castlevania gae in one.
