Comments and Reviews
So far, I like the idea. Will add stars once it has officially launched. As of writing, the team is organizing community spaces, vetting and on-boarding volunteers, and dealing with waves of harassment from emotionally unstable manchildren. I look forward to seeing how this project develops independently of it's source. :D
Provides great sample projects that just work, and bundles projects to just a few megabytes!
Low learning curve if you have some basic knowledge of coding. It might be tempting to go with a engine with more features but that also adds to complexity, this engine is easy to pick up and does the important things really well.
Free to use and works very well on linux.
