Unreal Engine


Industry standard software comes to wigwam.

There is nothing to write here, one of best if not the best engine if someone look mainly on the graphic side of the project. If you want to work on the software with the quality of AAA this engine is one of better choice, there are more game studios which take it as their main engine.

The software is matured enough to not worry that company will exit in any moment. If someone think about this engine there is a big ecosystem, from starting with download the engine to sell it in the Epic store, the cons is that it is still not on Linux. The problem could be the high requirements for the developing, someone says that this engine is nice for artists, they can made quickly beautiful landscape and program it with the blueprint.

The price of the engine is 5% of royalties after the game reaches 1 million USD in their lifetime gross revenue.

Nu

The engine has a promising future. It is clearly an experiment due to the language F#, but it is nice to see something new on the market. It has a nice approach using the Tiled editor for 2D and Blender for 3D. The only cons in the future could be support for OpenGL 4.1, which is old, but as the dev wrote on his page, it is widely supported.   Links Website:  Nu Download:  Github, getting started page Community:  Wiki  |  Discord

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
