Created a short game where my friends where in a gay relationship hidden from their girlfriends, who were the primary antagonists of the game. They hated it, and we have since grown apart. 10/10, really intuitive program that makes creating games very fun.

Simple and intuitive game engine but also highly customizable thanks to the huge community of enthusiasts who develop plugins. I don't think there is a better set of tools to create your first RPG without being overwhelmed by the sea of ​​information and tutorials that other game engines like Unity, Godot or Game Maker require. If the full price is too high I recommend waiting for the Steam sales where it is often discounted up to 85%.

A really great engine for dummies like me to use. I know very little about coding but always dreamed of making games. With so many assets and even a character generator is amazing! But there is some flaws tho... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pros: -Really easy to use and code. -Amazing assets -Not very restrictive software that allows custom content to be put in it. -Large fandom and many games. -Behind popular games such as 'Omori' and "look outside" -Able to make really diverse NPCS and cool things -Easy to test and play -Heavily backed up by Plugins made by and for the community. Cons: -Very easy to crash the software. causing a lot of work to be lost. -Game software only supports up to 2gb. -Lost an entire project of mine due to the game suddenly crashing and saying "J.son not found" -Kinda confusing to people who never have had used an engine before. -The price is crazily high! Probably the most expensive thing I own on steam. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is it worth it? Yes, I'd say so. From beginning coders to pros this is really the software for small indie developers to use who don't have much backing or they work by themselves. Do wait when this engine is on sale though. I got it for under 12 bucks, so if you are patient enough just wait for that sale. I still resent this engine for the lost project I had. I spent two days on it! :C

What you think it will be: -30% Level/enemy design -30% Coding -30% Playtesting -10% Looking for bugs What it actually is: -80% looking for plugins and reading documentation -10% frantically asking Reddit how to do the thing -10% what you thought it would be (Amazing software, 10/10)
