What's Duality? Duality is an open source, Windows-only 2D game engine based on OpenGL and written entirely in C#. Despite being a non-commercial project, it is a rather mature product because it has been around since 2011. It has also proved to be capable of delivering professional games. Obviously, the feature bucket is somewhat limited compared to the major proprietary engines. On the other hand, this fact makes Duality an excellent learning tool, because the user often needs to implement logic on a lower level and also has the opportunity to inspect the source code of the engine. Thus I would recommend this engine to game developers with an intermediate skill level, who'd like to have a take on open source and are not afraid of learning by doing. It's likely that anyone who has used Unity GameEngine will find it familiar as it is the source of inspiration for this beast. So What Is It In Short? It's an extensible 2D game engine. It comes with ...

What's Atomic? [According To The Site] The Atomic Game Engine is powerful 2D/3D technology developed by industry veterans. It is available under the MIT license as an alternative to proprietary binaries, excessive fees, and royalties. Atomic is available to professionals and is being used in production environments. It is also a great resource for learning JavaScript, TypeScript, C#, and the art of native C++ engine design. If you need excellent, high performance technology which leverages the full might of GitHub. [According to me] The Atomic Game Engine is a powerful multi-platform(Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux, and WebGL) game development tool that can be used for both 2D and 3D content. It is layered on top of Urho3D, an open source game development tool. What makes it great? It supports many platforms such as Windows, OSX, Linux, Android, iOS and WebGL. It also has a flexible scripting approach and users can choose to code in C#, JavaScript, TypeScript o...

Here are a few videos that teach the basics of Inkscape -> I will be uploading the shortcuts list in the downloads section soon.............. Part - 1: Learning to use Basic Tools And Shortcuts Part - 2: Learning to use more Basic Tools  And Shortcuts

Inkscape probably only free substitute to Illustrator that is worth while, seems to be lacking video tutorials so I thought that I would take up the job. Here are some tutorials for creating cartoony assets for your game. The tutorial will be Angry Birds Inspired because I have seen using a base theme makes making tutorials and learning from tutorials both very easy. [The list will be updated with time. Last Updated: 19/12/2016] Part - 1 : Creating Wooden Planks Part - 2 : Creating Grass And Clouds Part - 3 : Creating Bird And Egg (w/o Cracks) Part - 4 : Creating Flat Background

If you ask me I would say it's the most important step in game development. If you chose the right game engine then your path in game development is much easier i.e. to say that a person with no experience in 3D modelling have trouble trying to use game engine dominant in high end 3D stuff like UDK 4, while someone weak in programming cannot learn Cocos and so on..... SO WHAT? So we need to choose our game engine properly. For me Unity is the best, and so is the case with most. Though knowledge of programming is a must but huge number of assets like PlayMaker make it much easier to use, by adding visual coding functionality. And so is the case with most features. SO WHICH SHOULD YOU CHOOSE? Here is a list of a few game engines each with it's own pros and cons so choose wisely. And if you are still confused jump into Unity, then you will be able to sort your confusions about the engine right here on this site with the detailed tutorials and loads of free stuff too....
