3D Game Engines: Source VS UDK VS Panda3D?
I would go for Panda3D.
What is the best open-source game engine that can compete with Unity3D , Unreal Engine & Cryengine?
"Compete" is a bit subjective. I'll assume support a commercial game release. (Caveat: I haven't used any of these personally.) Also assuming you're looking for 3D engines based on the three listed.Panda 3D Game Engine is used by Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean Online, Disney's Pinball titles, Angels Fall First. In the right hands it can produce some really beautiful rendering.Panda3D advanced renderingPhyreEngine is a game engine from Sony, originally only for Sony platforms, but now supporting Windows, iOS, and Android. It's been used in over 70 commercial releases.Demon's Soul's 2 running on PhyreEngineid Tech 4 has a number of commercially released games from Id. There are some projects that have forked the open source release and ported the engine to other platforms and continued development. Brink (2011) running on the id Tech 4 engine.Pyrogenesis is the engine used in 0 A.D. It's not a commercial game, but as far as FOSS games go, it's probably the most polished. Pyrogenesis used by 0 A.D.If you aren't looking for strictly 3D engines, Adventure Game Studio and Cocos2d are two with commercial game releases.
Which is the best game engine?
i personally recommend to anyone wanting to create games to use unreal engine if they want to make games, however you could also use unity and i will now compare 10 things about them, which should give you a good idea about each engine. I personally think UE4 is easier.Language, UE4 Uses C++ And a Node based drag and drop system. Whereas unity 5 uses c#Max Price, UE4 - 5% Of revenue per project, Unity $125 Per Seat, Per monthPlatforms, Both support - IOS, MAC, LINUX, WINDOWS, ANDROID, PS4, XBOX, HTML5Better graphics - UE4Better community, Unity. however the UE4 Community is growing fasterBoth unity and UE4 Have and are used by major companies such as UBISOFT AND EASpecs - Unity uses less processing powerUE4 You can have source code access where in unity you cannotSplash Screen, UE4 Custom Splash and require agreement to use the UE Logo, unity forced unity splash when using free versionMore “big” Games seem to be made in UE4, Such as many of the tom clancy games and gears of warsAs i said i recommend UE4 To anyone who can run it, however the best thing you can do is download the free engines and try each of them out, see what you can do and what you think. see which is best for you and use that.
What is a best optionuse unity3d, unreal engine or gamemaker?
I can't speak to the other choices, but Unity 3D can easily build for web deployment.To see what the user experience of each platform is like, I suggest using a clean system without applicable plugins already installed, and just find and play two examples of games made with each engine. Then you'll know what the total experience is like as far as plugins the user will have to download, and browser compatibility.

What are the best engine and code for turn based battle rpg game?
I have written flash games, built platformers with XNA, done 3d shooters in Blender but can't find anything to build a 2d Rpg similiar to the early pokemon for gbc or dragon quest games. I have tried the following list and had problems that keep my game from being finished. I have all the graphics and am now looking for an engine to put them in. RPGToolkit- Various issues mostly not being able to test game and having a very lacking source of tutorials. Limited community Game Maker- Couldn't find tutorials for a turn based fight system. Had no money at the time for full version. Blender- Mostly for 3d hard to use for a 2d engine. Engine itself still a work in progress. I am just looking for a basic old school engine with some good tutorials and a turn based fight system. Any help will be greatly appreciated
I often see Unity and Game Maker mentioned. How are Valve's Source SDK tools?
A couple years ago Valve announced they would be releasing the Source 2 Engine as a publicly available engine to compete with Unity and Unreal.They still haven't actually done it.So there's really no good way to get your hands on the full Source SDK other than licensing it from Valve.Making mods isn't the same as making games.That's not a good choice in my book. Unity makes much more sense. Unreal makes much more sense. So does Amazon Lumberyard.So does GameMaker. You can get an incredible deal on GameMaker right now over at Humble Bundle. (Early September 2016) Incredible as in $15 bucks for the engine, a bunch of add ons like iOS and Android, and the source code for a bunch of different games.
Game maker 8- Not enough storage available to process this command?
how large are we talking about? It sounds like a computer problem than anything else. It the computer is probably running low/out of memory somewhere. Close a few unneeded taskbar and background programs and try again. If you can open it in Paint then you should be able to open in game maker. You may need to contact yoyo games (currently the company of game maker) about this error.
What do you think of Kadokawa's Pixel Game Maker MV Game Engine? Would you recommend it?
Never tried that, but i saw a short demo of it and it looks interesting, visual script language for easy game development, but no trial version for test and is windows platform only as well as inside steam.Technically i see something wrong on minimal parameters required, but probably that is because they didn’t care much about details of 32bit version of windows since it isn’t much in use.If that is all you require from a game engine, go for it. 80$ are nothing, but around that price there are many other 2D game engines and a lot are open source too… so before you buy it, have a look around try some other ones then decide what is the best for you.
