Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

O3DE
It's odd to me that when the whole Unity fiasco happened, everyone was basically looking at either Godot or Unreal, but pretty much nobody mentioned or cared for something like O3DE.
If you praise Godot for being open source a lot, then it stands to reason that you should similarly prefer O3DE as opposed to Unreal: https://github.com/o3de/o3de/blob/development/LICENSE.txt (no idea why they're going for both Apache 2 and MIT license, though) vs https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/license
Unless people just care about the options that are popular enough to warrant their attention and the features that they provide, whereas the licensing is actually a boon, rather than the main factor, given that Unreal also did some slight price increases a while later as well: https://www.unreal-university.blog/post/unreal-engine-5-pric...
Either way, it's still nice to have lots of options available regardless of the licensing details (though this kind of does fragment developers among bunches of different projects), be it Godot, O3DE, Stride, Unreal or even something like jMonkeyEngine (one of the rare Java engines/editors with 3D) or NeoAxis (that one had a cool voxel LOD solution, but performance on AMD hardware was bad).

Alternative Game Engines for Marooned Unity Developers
03DE: Open source game engine, under Apache License 2.0, developed by Amazon and the linux foundation. Seems to work under a modular package called "gems", that you can use to pull in the functionality you need. It uses c++ as it's main language, but you can use Lua, python or visual scripting for scripting stuff. Has multiplayer built into the engine and what they call a "robust" system for open-world games. There seems to be a lot of tutorials on the site, but they aren't laid out great.

How are game engines made?
I have been coding mine for many years now. Fortunately it is still small enough that can be easily understood by one person. Have a look here: https://ncine.github.io/

SpookyGhost, my open-source procedural animation tool for sprites, comes to Raspberry Pi
It uses my 2D framework nCine, which I recently ported to Raspberry Pi. That's why there are so many supported platforms. ;)

nCine comes to Raspberry (my open-source 2D game framework)
nCine is a cross-platform 2D framework written in C++11 and scriptable with Lua that can be used for games, tools, or prototypes. I have been working on it in my spare time for more than ten years and it now works out-of-the-box on the latest version or Raspberry Pi OS!

SpookyGhost, a procedural sprite animation tool, is now free and open source
I created this tool for game artists a while ago, with the hope of selling it and start an independent company about game development, tools, and game technology.
Unfortunately, it sold pretty much nothing so I'm back to the game industry as an employee while I decided to make it FOSS. :D
It is written in C++ using my game framework nCine (https://ncine.github.io/) and ImGui, and it supports multiple platforms, like PC, Android, and the web.
