I've been using GameMaker since 2006, It keeps getting better and better with every update. Make games for Windows, Mac, Linux, HTML5, and Android all from one app. Awesome.

I really like this game engine; it's easy to use and learn. I enjoy having both visual scripting and traditional scripting as options, which makes it versatile for different types of developers. One of my favorite aspects of this engine is the user interface—it's very easy on the eyes and encourages me to spend more time working on my game. My only complaint is the lack of robust 3D support. While creating 3D projects is possible, it can be quite cumbersome and limited. It would be fantastic if the developers released an update that offered better or more complete 3D support, similar to how Godot handles it. That would really take this engine to the next level.
