Narrat

Narrat Game engine looks like someone wanted to make RenPy as easy as the Adventure Game Engine for Windows was when it was released.

The engine looks like it was made for people who wanted to write their own novels with minimum coding experience. They have their own easy script language and a plugin for the visual studio code which makes work easier.

The additional thing to release ready for desktop and web is that the engine and games itself can be integrated into the website, maybe someone will use it to make their own ChatBot in an adventure style? Maybe this will be a disadvantage but the games look like the chatbot on most of the sites. But there are always some sort of sacrifices, and maybe in the future, there will be the possibility to change the style to another like with the RPG mode in this engine.

Let's hope that the engine and its author show us more good material in the future. There is even a game jam for this engine!

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
