I like ORX because it's easy to use, very optimized (size and performance) and fully Open source.

What is Orx?

Orx is an open source, portable, lightweight, plugin-based, data-driven and extremely easy to use 2D-oriented game engine. It has been created to allow fast creation of games and prototypes. Orx provides a complete framework for game development and currently runs on windows (mingw and native using visual studio), linux (x86/x86_64), MacOS X (ppc/x86), iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad and Android. Orx is a full featured and powerful "2.5D" game engine. All objects and cameras are created in a 3D space, but only a 2D rendering plugin is currently available (however hooks are provided for those who need to roll out their own 3D rendering). It's licensed under the zlib license. It's a very permissive (and short) license that allows one to use Orx (and modify it at will) for free for any kind of projects, freeware or commercial, without any compensation.
