This was the first game engine I used to make a serious game (serious meaning not made in Scratch). I am making the game right now it is called Dirk the Unlikely and I will not plug it here anymore. I seriously think you should give it a shot; the tutorials are great and the only thing that I found difficult is working with bitmaps for the first time.
