Hello! Are you thinking of making a game?
Here are some useful pages on the wiki that you might find useful!
You can find the full games and virtual worlds info section here: https://wiki.melonland.net/#games_virtual_worlds
If you have any extra info feel free to post it below! OR (even better) go and add it to the wiki too

there are a few other new game/world pages that aren't linked from the main page of the wiki:
- Blender - powerful free and open 3D software
- Three.js - javascript library for 3D webpages;
Ozwomp Is Online uses three.js! - X3D - an option for 3D webpages that doesn't require javascript knowledge! you can make worlds like this one!!
(ok this page isn't new but i gave it a lil update)
i am a total newbie to these topics, but i'm adding things to the wiki as i learn about them!
wisdom-havers, please share your knowledge! do you have any tips or tricks for using your favorite tools?
fellow newbies, what topics/resources/guides would be helpful for you? let's figure it out together! -
How about the OHR RPG engine? That's what Formless Star by splendidland is made in - I found it to be a really impressive free RPG engine with a lot more coding versatility than RPG Maker. Not a whole lot of games made with it but I think the engine is really impressive, despite the very old UI. I would add it to the wiki myself but I wanted to know if there'd be any interest first, and I'd love to see more people use it!

How about the OHR RPG engine?
it's already on the 2D game engine list, right above RPG maker! i haven't tried it myself yet, but i'm really interested! i love formless star

There's a game engine I've used quite a bit called GDevelop that's great for making 2D games pretty quickly and easily. I've made a few games up on my Itch page using it, and I've even used it for some library programs where we try to make a working prototype in about an hour. It's a pretty fun engine. It might be worth putting on the 2D engine list?

i've played with coppercube, which is a 3d engine that doesn't really need coding (but if you wanna do something that's not part of the engine you can use javascript too
)
it does have a paid version but most of the features are free & you can sell games made with the free version if you wanna
haven't figured out how to get a third person camera that works well tho lol -
GODOT is lightweight, open source, and improving by the day. I love it!
