I'm pretty sure it's actually possible to make a conventional Space Shooter in Ren'Py because it provides tools to create "mini-games" inside your novels. It may not be the best tool for this kind of game, but the functionality is there.

These videos are always so impressive. You're able to do things in 9 engines I'd seemingly struggle to do in one for ages!

9:47 small correction: Far Cry 6 is made with Dunia Engine. It's basically Ubisoft's heavily modified version of CryEngine. I would consider it a seperate engine due to Dunia being in use since Far Cry 2. Dunia is basically a fork from very early versions of CryEngine.

0:30 Clickteam Fusion 2:25 Roblox Studio 4:21 Buildbox 6:21 Ren'Py 8:20 CryEngine 10:07 Unity 11:25 Pygame 13:05 Pico-8 14:42 CopperCube

I love how the sample games shown for CRYengine are named "far CRY", "pReY", "CRYsis 3", "RYse: son of rome". Seems like you need to have an R followed by an Y in your game's name

6:49 In case you don't know. In Krita, there's the "Assistant Tool" where you can choose the perspective, and then draw following the guidelines using the "Snap to Assistant" option

2 things : 1. Super interesting video, I discovered a lot of Game Engines I didn't know anything about. Would have been interesting to see you making the game in GDevelop engine too tho, I think this game engine would have been perfectly suited for the challenge and the video. 2. With all the knowledge and experience you gather from making this kind of content on your channel, I'd love to see a Tier-List of Game Engines from you. Not necessarily just "worst from best game engine", but maybe adding some depth like "best game engine in each category" (since some engines may be more specialized in specific game genres). Thanks for the great and fun content anyway 👍

More than just the talent you have with the engines, these videos are so well put together with all the green screen scenes. Really impressive, and makes for great viewing, keep it up!

To be fair, Roblox Studio is intended for you to keep the built-in functionalities as it is meant to be a multiplayer game not single player. While what you did is fine, for the general Roblox developer the built in tools are more than enough for them as scripting is entirely optional and the Equivalent of an Asset Store (The Toolbox) is extremely accessible.

I love your videos! It's pretty clear you work hard and value what you do!

I LOVE these videos. I'm currently in school for software engineering and once I graduate I plan to work on a game to add to my portfolio!

the editing for this video was amazing! Using a spaceship concept and “traveling” to different engines is super creative, especially with the game concept you were recreating. I figured you deserve some recognition for your editing talent too lol

Hey, great video! Seasoned RenPy dev here, just gonna put out there that it woulda been possible to make a game similar to the ClickTeam Fusion one if ya went down the Screens and Key events rabbit hole.

It's interesting to see CryEngine again. I played around with it a decade ago but back then it was even less beginner friendly. At the time, there was some kind of weird issue with Scaleform in the community edition that completely broke every in-game UI element. I wound up having to dig around the source just to find a way to render textures on screen. It also had a tendency to corrupt its registry entries every couple days and would refuse to launch again until you manually fixed it.

Since you brought up Pygame, one engine that would be really cool to see would be Panda 3D the only (as far as I know) 3d engine running Python. I mostly want to see it because its entirely Open Source and the story of its development is just so fucking wild to me (it was originally developed by Disney for a theme park ride) that I do wonder how good or bad it is.

You've inspired me to jump back into game dev, thanks!

Requests for more: Godot, MonoGame, Game Maker, RpgMaker, Construct And if you feel like trying more frameworks in languages that are less easy to grasp: SFML (C++), SDL (C or C++), Cocos2D (C, C++, Objective-C/C++) and Bevy (Rust) Alternatives: Processing (Java), Cinder (C++), OpenFrameworks (C++) }:D

That's a fricking good idea ! If you spend time on other engines you can learn new ways to make elements of a game, it's a a nice challenge !

Loving the gradual increase in production value! Another really solid video. also do assembly next can't wait to see the result in 4 years

Great video(s)! Suggestion for another sequel if that's ok with you: "RPG in a Box". You can make more than RPGs with it and it's a really easy engine made for beginners. It deserves a lot more attention. The developer is constantly adding new features and he's very helpful when you have questions.

Everyone one of your videos leaves me impressed by your seemingly endless creativity. It's inspiring! Also, Gunther isn't mad... he's just disappointed.

If you ever decide to continue this series, I suggest trying out RPG in a Box. It's made specifically for RPGs and is really useful for voxel-based games.

Lovely little video, cool to see so many different methods.

Great video! Thanks. Would live to see another one with C and Raylib, Lua and LOVE, CT.js, Solarus, and Bitsy. Just ideas, you dont have to do them all in one video :)

Awesome!! Very good job using different engines to create the same game and test all of the engines!!

I freaking love your video!! Im very happy to see a new one

I loved watching this video! One thing I’d like to see if you continue this series of making the same game in different engines, I’d actually want to see you use Flash or something of the likes of that to make a game :o

Really enjoy these videos. If you do a future one with even more engines, I hear Monogame and Defold mentioned a bit these days :3

Awwww! Was really looking forward to some tryhard renpy-ing 😂 Great video🎉

nice to see you code in roblox ive been developing for like 9 months on it so far

That was cool! Thank you for the great content!

I'm so glad you used roblox! you should make more videos on it cause its such a great engine, i always go on it when im bored and i dont wanna play the already existing games, LUA is very easy to learn and very fun.

Awesome video! And yeah, cry engine is rough.

Thanks for talking about coppercube, i hope your video help people understand how easy and good this engine is.

Clickteam Fusion is my personal favorite engine, while i never posted or published a game with it, i always had lots of fun making simple 2D platformers, The only skill it requires you to have is understanding basic visual scripting and of course, Art skills (Unless you wanna hire someone) , maybe one day i'll make a proper game, cool video btw.

I think that you should do one more video with more game engines. I missed LOVE2D, it's really awesome and you should test it. It uses Lua, a great script language that was created here in Brazil! Wish you the best. Your videos are awesome!!

fantastic video!, i do want to say one thing, Roblox Studio actually can be used to make single player cinematic games, you just have to change the player count in your games plubishing settings.

I know these videos take a ton of time and effort to make, so i wanted to let you know that i really look forward to them. Proper puts a smile on my face when I open youtube and see a new one of these ready for me to watch in bed :)

As a person who's been using copper cube for 6 years and support it, I'm happy you mentioned it😀

Hey man, wondering if you remember me! Been watching you since you since the 4d flappy bird! Keep it up man! Love your content! You should try to challenge yourself to make a randomized genre of game and give yourself a certain amount of time to make a game with possibly multiple people taking turns adding and changing things, you can also use any game creator you want. (Roblox studio, scratch, unreal engine, etc)

It would be interesting to compare how quick learning and/or development was with the different game engines

This is really good keep it up

For some reason "It feels like a win when you get basic mechanics to work" doesn't exactly seem like an endorsement lol

Your really good at this kind of stuff awesome game

Awesome video as always

Man I love ur goofy thumbnauls

Pygame is actually the only game engine I can work with 😂 Even Unity is a challenge, but Pygame has a special place in my heart ❤

These make me nostalgic... back in the 80's, on the Commodore 64 there was "Shoot Em Up Construction Kit"... Many great times were had making shooting games on that little tool (And one slightly adult story which can be told some other time)

U have the best videos

Great video, as always

honestly I wonder if Emeral will continue this series, because I really want to see him try Processing and also Stencyl since I've had good experiences with both and I think he'll have a great time with em, I wonder...

Great stuff. Couple engines for the next episode: Love2D, Defold

I wish you've covered Godot as well :) anyway, cool video😊

I love coppercube and I have over 900 hours in it I find you can make nice looking games with voxel art and if you get deep into it it's very powerful

Cobbercube game looked stunning and had some innovative enemies.

a little disappointed you didn't try putting a shooting minigame in the renpy project 😂 you can put in mini games so i'm sure you can do that too with some python code. i don't know how to do it but i'm sure someone else can lol!

I wonder if you could possibly attempt recreating roblox in Coppercube, I;ve tried doing that before but importing the animated mesh that is the noob with recreated anims but the thing is when I import it, the parts are teleported to the centre, and are all white and it looks like a weird tiny blob. Another thing is, the gravity system in copper cube is weird, as the character jumps very fast, and the gravity is set to 10 by default.

In case you are wondering, Clickteam Fusion - 00:26 Roblox Studio - 02:26 Buildbox - 04:22 Ren'Py - 06:22 CryEngine - 08:20 Unity - 10:10 Pygame - 11:25 Pico 8 - 13:06 CopperCube - 14:43

muito legal ver você usando a clickteam fusion, é estranho porque parece uma engine um pouco abandonada, ao mesmo tempo que ela continua sendo bem usada.

Your videos are different from everyone else, in a good way 😅

The long awaited sequel

You should try some more esoteric game engines like the doom or quake engine next, yeah they're pretty old but they can still make some good games especially if you're going for a more retro style obviously. And there are newer updated versions of them that add newer features that allows you to replicate some of the stuff you can do in more modern engines too like PBR materials or using gltf as a model format instead of the old formats those engines originally used

I litterally only learned how to use print and comments in Python and Lua and this person know every single programming language and he's even really good at scripting

More like CryEngine- oh wait no that’s actually what it’s called

I love your videos!!

Another great game engine comparison! I'd recommend giving Godot a look over again, as since the last time Godot 4.1 has released with a bunch new shiny features (and user improvements like renaming Scalar to Node3D like a logical game engine).

You should try the sandbox! One time I saw adds for it and it looks pretty cool!

very underrated channel

amazing content!!!

YEAH TACOFOOD LETS GO YOU MADE IT!

next time you make a video like this (love them by the way) could you try this thing called "The sandbox"? Ive seen a lot of ads on it but it doesnt seem very flexible

you are very talented

Next time, try Love2D please! I LOVE your channel.

Somebody that actually looks like me doing an interest that I have been wanting to do for a long time. Nice job man, mad inspirational.

great content videos! I would like to see your opinion on GB Studio please 😄

if you do another video like this you should try rec room as one of the engines

epic video i really liked the roblox one very cool

I find it interesting being a Roblox dev to watch people make games for the first time in its engine.

I have noticed that with Godot, Unreal, Unity, Gdevelop, Buildbox, and several lesser-known engines, there are... Templates or example games. With these, you can use them to create or rebuild your own game. To do so, you either switch out the assets, sounds, and effects or switch out everything and add anything extra to make it more complex.

Roblox also has a reputation for exploiting child labor and People Make Games and the Washington Post have have interesting stuff on them. I wouldn't develop on their platform for purely ethical reasons but luckily for me I'm too dumb to develop a game on it anyways.

I'd like to see more videos like these, but you try to actually make the same game lol I also just love unbiased, non-competitive videos like these that just show the strengths and weaknesses of game engines, rather than tier-ranking engines. I just look away from stuff like "GameMaker Vs. Unity" cause that's like comparing apples to oranges. Game engines are a "pick your poison" type of thing. There is no "best" poison out there when they all have the same function: making a game. It's whether or not you want to live with that poison(s) for the rest of your game making career and all the pros and cons that come with it.

pure talent.

It is cool how easy it is to mod the character text of Ren'Py games.

Excellent!

Nice u are good creator dude

Good video you may add Love2D to be 10 engines

I really want to see a turn based game. Tic Tac Toe, Connect 4, Checkers, almost anything that waits for input.

I have a video idea, maybe you could get a mix of game topics and ask G Develop’s AI to make it. Then you could judge the game it made and see if it was good, bad, or in between.

You have the best videos

First time seeing a game developer who doesn't say that roblox is trash

Underrated asf

You should really try out Bevy, which is a game library for Rust

Nice video, what game engine would you recommend to build a card building deck game with rpg elements like healing etc? Bear in mind no coding skills, visual scripting as would be good & links to assets would be nice thanks.

This is a great video concept with good execution. I like it. I think a title like "Making a game in 9 niche engines" would make more sense. Something to justify Godot being left out x) #copium

This is amazing

This was very impressive! Me, as a developer would never be able to make a game in so many different engines. But could you publish the game on Roblox? I already managed to find it but it's unpublished.

I love the aesthetic of the unity one

The main problem is too have choose engine when your project is huge For simpler games there isn't big difference

ive been meaning to make a video like this for 3 game engines how did u even find 9 engines bro damn

The Roblox Studio engine is surprisingly flexible. I've seen so many photorealistic looking Roblox games
