title: Big List of Open Source Game Development Tools
description: Big List of Open Source Game Development Tools

<p class="article-intro indent-8">
    Most of the people always think game development is an expensive thing, because 
    most of the time when we search about game development we will be discouraged 
    by either the subscription amount or the percentage cut of the so called AAA 
    engines or the platform. Yes, you can makes games with those tools nobody is 
    going to stop you. But eventually you will be restricted with a small set of 
    features or because most of the useful and important features will be behind 
    a paywall and you will be forced to pay for the features. But in the case of 
    Open Source tools/engines you can adapt, modify or you can introduce your own 
    functionality/features to the tools/engine that you are mostly needed.
