Ridiculous Games made by Ridiculous Gamers
Oh, The Engines We Might Know
In the city of pixels where sprites dare to roam,
Ridiculous Games had made quite the home.
With Unity they crafted, they built, and they played,
But a change in the wind had them somewhat dismayed.
For Unity declared, “Each install shall cost!”
This new model they flaunted, and many felt lost.
“Not fair!” cried some devs, especially those free,
While Ridiculous Games pondered, “What shall our fate be?”
Yet a member then said, with a gleam in their eye,
“Why not try other engines? Give them a fly!
There’s Unreal, there’s Godot, and LumberYard’s spree,
With so many choices, as vast as the sea.”
Together they ventured, explored realms unknown,
With each engine's marvels, their minds were a blown.
Godot had its charm, Unreal its might,
LumberYard's expanse made futures look bright.
“Though Unity’s journey has thrown us a curve,
It’s not just the engine, but the passion we serve!”
Ridiculous found strength in this twist of their tale,
For with creativity, they'd never grow stale.
So here's to the devs, both big and quite small,
May you find your own engine, and stand very tall.
With heart, grit, and wonder, and stories to show,
Oh, the marvelous engines you might come to know!
