The Most Exciting Game Development Tools

We have never been more spoiled for choice when it comes to the world of game development. Today we are going to take a look at 16 of the most exciting tools and game engines in development right now. This isn’t by any means a “best of” list, just a bunch of awesome gamedev projects I am most excited to see what comes next.

If a project isn’t included in this list that means nothing. It could mean the project is simply mature at this point, so isn’t growing at an exciting pace. Or more simply, I could have simply forgotten about it! Many projects are on this list because of an upcoming feature or major licesnings change. If you have additional suggestions, let me know in the comments in the video below, or on the GFS discord server!
