Defold

If you have been set A level computer science coursework on this, might as well drop the subject right now its not worth it edit: imagine the most simple task, like creating a button that starts a game. Here in Defold, its the most complex, pain-inducing, mind-crushing task man has ever seen. the whole of NASA combined would not be able to comprehend the sheer amount of brain power required to make a GUI button actually function when it is pressed. Maybe its enjoyable to some people who do this for fun, but as a student who had this set over summer break, this is genuinely the most effective way of torture i will ever experience

Fantastic game engine for Lua developers <3

Took some time to understand how objects work but after that i can glide making tons of projects i'll abandon due to my loss of interest :D

For years (bug tracking at Github) this game engine doesn't care about font sizes of the main operating system. You also can't just open settings and set the font size. No, you have to create a new CSS file that originally isn't documented anywhere. How should anyone be able to do a simple game, when the UI font is practically invisible? Which display sizes do the original programmers of this engine use? 7"? As those computer displays tend to grow and having bigger resolutions, fonts tend to get tinier. If you use CSS, use FULL CSS. Pixels are out, use em. Use labels that are as big as the text in them. I remember my first project in VB.NET. Do you know, how many containers I used, so the window and all its contents would be visible, no matter how big the font?

Quite easy to use once you have read/watched some sources on it. I am only 2 months in and have a pretty great understanding of the Defold engine, and the Lua language. Defold gives plenty of examples for places to find documentation on Lua, this has greatly helped me learn and I will be using Defold for a long time to come. 10/10 Highly recommend.

If you want to do something beyond very basic stuff, prepare to make workarounds to implement anything that is basic functionality in other game engines like Godot. I mean, it's regularly recommended in its own documentaion.

its peak

Very easy to understand for a beginner
