The Exit Games Photon development framework provides a fast and high-performance socket server to build your own real-time multiplayer games and applications for various platforms.
While the server is C/C++ based to get maximum speed and performance, developers can create their own server logic in comfortable C#.
Photon can be easily combined with Exit Games Neutron to make use of Neutron’s wide set of turn-key features.
The Photon “Free License” includes 50 concurrent users (CCUs). Any license can be easily upgraded at the cost of the difference. No reinstall of the server needed.
Hydorah is an horizontal Shoot ’em up, designed for experienced players, with a challenging level of dificulty and a great variety of levels and bosses.
If you fought the Bydo and shooted the Bacterians in the core, you are ready for the war against the evil god Hydorah. Choose the path to follow and fight planet by planet against hordes of meroptians. The game features lots of short and intense levels with fantasy spacial landscapes, unlockable weapons and secrets, and a large library of enemies and bosses. There is a single dificulty level, based on the 80’s standards. It can be very hard, but with every beaten level there will come the glory.
GameMaker is a really fun and quite powerful program to create games without writing a single line of code, through you can add all the code you want to maximize the fun doing 2d games and obtaining pretty good results too. Recently i checked the Gamemaker blog and found out that a Macintosh port is on its way as a PSP port too, wow doing games (without coding) on a PlayStation Psp seems a cool idea..
Ryzom is now the first commercial MMORPG completely Open Source.
The whole source code of Ryzom (client, server and tools) is now under the GNU AGPLv3 Open Source license.
All the Ryzom art (textures, 3D objects, animations, particle effects) is under the Creative Common Attribution-Share Alike license.
If you are a developer, you can now take the source code and/or the art assets of Ryzom to make your own MMORPG or any other project.
The MMF2 (Multimedia Fusion 2) and TGF2 (The Games Factory 2) SWF File Exporter will allow you to create applications compatible with Adobe® Flash® Player…
As of now it has some limitation but it’s amazing that you can build a flashgame using the power and easy ClickTeam’s Gamemaker..
This pack contains 100 games made with gamemaker, during the 2009. It’s a whooping 700 mb download and it’s (hopefully) full of funny and interesting games.
If you like one (or more) of this games, please visit the respective website, some authors have set up ads banners (you know what to do) and-or some paypal donate button.
Warning some game in this pack is not suitable for kids.
There is a new version of the SDK available for download.
I wonder how many free and stand-alone mods will come out in the next months..
They should make the current UT free,too, don’t you think?

With great pleasure I will share that we have completed development on version 2.6 of Unity. This release includes some awesome new features for everyone like a brand new Animation Editor and Project search, along with additional Pro-only features such as a Profiler, Ambient Occlusion, and tons more.
You can read more about what’s been packed into this release on the new 2.6 feature page.
But we’re not quite done here… That’s right, we’ve discontinued Unity Indie and replaced it with a feature-identical version of the Editor called simply “Unity”. The difference? Unity is free for everyone. One more barrier to entry torn down.
For current Indie license holders, we’ve thought about you too! We’re offering a discount on a Unity Pro upgrade for all Indie license holders. Until the end of the year, you can upgrade to Unity Pro for $1099. And if you’ve purchased Unity Indie in the past 60 days, you can opt to receive a full refund for your purchase instead. Those who qualify for the full refund should receive an email with details soon.
Finally, I’d just like to say thanks to everybody that uses, learns, and teaches Unity. Our community is about to grow again with new Unity users, and I’m just really proud of how the spirit of helping and supporting each other perseveres throughout each new influx. It’s just great, plain and simple. I’m looking forward to playing all your brilliant creations!
(Bucaneer was actually made with TGEA not Torque 3D)
Torque 3D is a professional SDK used to create games. In simpler terms, Torque 3D is a game engine developed by GarageGames. Game development is one of the most difficult, yet fun and rewarding, professions in the world.
Using a game engine is not just a shortcut to finishing a game. Using Torque 3D will save you the time and effort required to create a complex rendering system, high speed networking, real time editors, a scripting system, and so on. However, you must also realize that there is a lot of power “under the hood” that should be harnessed.
More than just a powerful, C++ driven game engine, Torque 3D is also a collection of tools that will aid you in making your games. The engine, also referred to as the source code, was developed entirely in C++. The most important thing to realize about Torque 3D is that it is a large, complex system. It is possible to complete a game without ever touching the source code. However, having source code access allows you to extend the engine to be whatever you want.
This one is priced (the moment i write) 1000 us dollars.
There is also TGEA which is 295 us dollars for indie.
Or torque 2d which is 100-250 us dollars.
