I am learning gamemaker. Unity is good if your game is freeware. Otherwise gamemaker or blender.

Are you allowed to sell games made in blender? I'm pretty sure the fact it's open source means you can't sell blender itself, soI'm not sure how that works.

 

OT: I've used game maker, unity, blender, unreal, and phyre. If you don't want to spend money or make money,unity is the best for most games. Pro costs around a thousand dollars but most of the features are in the free version. No need to upgrade if you're just starting out.

You can't sell Blender itself, but as long as you include legal acknowledgement of Blender in the final product then you can sell your Blender games.  I remember skimming the legal section & you needed to include the blender GNU (? sorry, I read this years ago) licence which only applies to the engine basically, not your art work and your game progrming which you can sell, but I never dug deaper to learn just what that meant & how to "include" it.

I remember seeing a nonfree Blender game on Steam, can't remember the name, it was a shooter, had UN in the name.
