Torque3D VS PhysicsExamples2D

On a similar note, released games with open sourced code: https://osgameclones.com/?tag=official

https://torque3d.org was used on Airship Dragoon, Marble Blast Gold, Penny Arcade Adventures, Legions: Overdrive and descends from the original Tribes engine.

Hellbreaker, Bit Champs with https://u3d.io

And plenty of successful games with Ogre, including Torchlight: https://www.ogre3d.org/showcase

Torque 2D/3D: Didn't do too much digging around on this one, but both versions are MIT licensed like Godot, but it seems like the project is a little more mature, with built-in multiplayer support. Could be worth looking into as an alternative to Godot if you really want something with MIT licensing.

But from now on, I think I will abandon that, and continue with Torque3D engine : https://torque3d.org/

Torque3D- This one seems great for beginners, as it's free and open-source. The downside is, I'm not sure if it has enough features for complex projects or how secure it is.

No lie, that overall looks a lot like a game done for a senior design project 15+ years ago using Garage Games' (now https://torque3d.org/) RTS kit.

Unity. Can't say much. It's the most popular choice for 2D game development. But somehow, my heart wasn't in writing in C#. Also, for some entirely subjective reason, I had a skeptical attitude towards the engine.

Install Unity Hub from Unity's official website.

Sooo. Unity. It's a 3D game engine created by a company of the same name. It was published in 2005 and is one of the most used game engines in the world due to its simplicity, the number of documents, and the easy way to publish games on all platforms.

Unity is a popular game engine and development platform that is widely used for creating games, as well as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) applications. It provides a comprehensive set of tools, libraries, and features that enable developers to build interactive and immersive experiences across various platforms.

Creating 3D Videos: After downloading the desired models, you can import them into 3D software like Unity or Unreal Engine. These platforms allow you to create 3D scenes and animations, which can be exported as video files.

The next step I need help with is finding the right platform to market myself on. I’ve already been recommended Unity and Yahaha. Any guidance related to these will be appreciated, and if you have experience or recommendations for similar platforms, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Also, if you really want to make a game, you could try learning C# (it's very similar to Java) and use https://unity.com/ (Unity 3D is free if you have less than $100K of revenue/funding within the past 12 months).
