discussion Which game engine do you prefer?

[Archer]

Ren'Py is the safest and likely to be the best. RPGM for very specific scenarios and game types. HTML if there are a lot of choices in the game.
Adrift and Tads if you want to remember the old days.

My PC died recently, so Renpy or whatever else can run on Android reliably

Definitely renpy for playing As a unity dev I have to say it's so easy to make a mess of your game.

 

[Gonzo01]

Prefer RenPy, but mainly it depends on the game itself, the gameplay , interface, and storyline. There's some good Unity ones out there.

 

[User_37918]

i like RenPy, but this is purely on the fact Unity games are often executed badly UX-wise

 

[_Frt2_]

Ren'Py almost exclusively. There's only few RPGM or Unity games I've played.

 

[rangabanga]

I've got no idea, I just play a game after judging it by its cover

 

[NordicSunWorshipper]

Unity games often buggy. dont know why but I avoid them

 

[mouse18]

I like the Renpy type games... Sandbox not so much.

 

[Ziau]

Ren'py. Nothing else really comes close

 

[denny]

RenPy - VaM - Unity or RPGM?

Renpy

 

[User_25489]

Ren'Py for sure.

 

[lolilewder]

renpy, will not even try a game if it uses anything else

 

[cosicosi89]

REN py all the way .. but still feels slightly clunky

at least you have the option to speed through the conversations that the developer spent hours to write... to get to the good stuff

 

[DewisHoHoHo]

Renpy, I don't even search for other engines

 

[LiquidTremelo]

Renpy has to be the best and unity the worst, right? For AVN's at least.

I would say RPG maker is the worst for AVNs

Sad that most japanese games are so clunky. They have some interesting ideas.

 

[Jack-Atlas]

RenPy, because I can't play without the self voicing, too lazy to read dialogues
