Best 2D engines

[MrTAToad]

Over on Slant, there is a list of game engines - would be good if people could vote for my recently added GLBasic nomination.

The link is http://www.slant.co/topics/341/~what-are-the-best-2d-game-engines - need to scroll near the bottom and then vote.

Let me know if anything needs to be added to the pro's (or con's) list.

Voted...

Ah good!

[erico]

There are plenty more "goods" but somehow I fear adding it as it might just be me...
...like:

. >10 years support from the author.
. No hidden fees, very accessible eternal and beyond license.
. Free for 2d home use.
. Extremely diamond pure old school easy coding, no visual drag´n drop bullshit.
. Superb support from what is to be the best forum the human race is capable of generating so far (troll and spam and ads free!).
. Made in the Nation that beat Brazil 7-1 and are World Cup Champions, so it is the best tool there is.
. No cheap annoying marketing all around, a secret society tool for those that know what they want and need.

There is more.

Only 4 votes!?  Is everybody on vacation - or  ??!

[MrTAToad]

I think so

[erico]

Probably enjoying the sun those people are

Would it be ok if I add some of my GOOD?

just added the:

FREE FOR 2D HOME DEVELOPMENT
Free use: Create apps for non commercial 2D programs running on Windows, Linux and Mac OSX. The extension to create programs for other platforms, 3D or network applications requires a license key. Otherwise the "Premium" programs are limited to 10 min runtime for test purposes. There is no trial limit for the development environment.

[MrTAToad]

I've added that.

[erico]

ops I already have done that too, should I delete mine?

[MrTAToad]

No, I've changed mine!

Now 6 votes after mine.

I thought it was so good I voted twice (once with facebook, once with google+)

[Ian Price]

Voted.

Don't you get the impression though that some people are never happy, no matter what? Hmmm :/

[erico]

I don´t even get an ´impression´ anymore... I´m sure one of the reasons humans came to this world must be to ´complain´

edit: I´m kind of reading some comments on the other tools...lots of crazy stuff, some I didn´t even know, specially monstruous prices...
edit2: this one is really great about unity:
Elitist attitudes
Quite a few people in the community have highly elitist attitudes and are quick to put down people using other game engines.

haha
