2D Point and Click Engine Recommendations

Aug 3, 2014

I’m looking for some good recommendations on modern 2D point-and-click adventure game engines. These should be complete engines, not just advice to use Lua or Pascal (it’s making a comeback). I want to look at the whole engine, not just the scripting language. PC based is required. Mobile is a ok. HTML5 is not necessary. Screw JavaScript. Screw Lua too, but not as hard as JavaScript.

I’m not so much interested in using them, as I’d just like to dissect and deconstruct what the state of the art is today.

Best. Ending. Ever.

An email sent to me from LucasArts Marketing/Support letting me know they “finally” found some people who liked the ending to Monkey Island 2.
