My 11 year old cousin loves Scratch. He's made several games and "movies" using it. Another more powerful alternative is Stencyl: https://stencyl.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
I have been using Stencyl for my personal 2d games. Source: almost 2 years ago
I thought he used Stencyl (which has block coding like Scratch). Source: about 3 years ago
Isn't that what unity is? Honest question, I've never used it. There's also stencyl. Source: about 3 years ago
I'd choose something that requires less explicit programming, like Construct. It's proprietary software (I'm not affiliated with it in any way), but they have reasonable prices for education, and I know a person who has had success teaching kids to make basic games with it (with Construct 2, I think, which don't people prefer to Construct 3). Some similar tools which I haven't tried are Stencyl or GDevelop (this... Source: over 3 years ago
Humble Bundle has a Godot bundle is available for the next day or so.

These tools take care of a lot of issues for you ranging from asset to memory management. Raylib is still cross-platform but does not handle these tasks for the programmer which I... - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
It's not as monolithic as you'd think. There are lots of engines out there but their communities aren't very vocal compared to Unity, Unreal, and especially Godot's community. Take a look at: https://itch.io/game-development/engines/most-projects And https://www.gamedeveloper.com/blogs/the-generous-space-of-alternative-game-engines-a-curation- If you look at both of these you'll see just how many engines there are... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
