Have you ever tried creating that dream game you’ve always wanted to create? Well, if you have, depending on your situation, you’ll quickly find out that game development isn’t an easy task. There’s so much involved. Worst of all, you have a learn an industrial language like C++ or C# to create reasonable games.

But if you are like me and want to create simple games that encapsulates your dream idea, then look no further than the Defold Game Engine. Now, this game engine isn’t as popular as Unity or Unreal, but it is powerful enough to create really cool games –though this depends on your creativity.

What are Defold’s features?

• It is a 3d game engine optimized for 2d. This means the primary kind of games would have a lot of 2d features
• It uses an interpreted language called Lua. Lua easily integrates with software and has a really simple syntax. Although Defold is based on C++, Lua controls the scripting and logic of games
• It supports cross-platform development. You only have to write one code and easily port it to different platforms like Android, IOS, Windows and Linux.

So those are the basic features. Defold may be the best game engine for you. You don’t have to face the overwhelming environment of Unity or Unreal.

So that’s it. I’ll be giving some tips, tutorials, game examples, etc here on Mecharaf. games are cool. if a game offers you value aside from entertainment, it’s cooler. So what are you waiting for? Get a sketchpad and start designing the awesome games you’ll like to build and get defolding.
