Godot is a completely free, open-source, cross-platform, and lightweight 2D + 3D game engine. It started as a 2D game engine, but later expanded its capabilities for 3D game development. Compared with many other game engines, it is small in size, rich in features, simpler and easier to use, and more friendly to the novice game makers. The games made with Godot can be simultaneously released to Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, UWP, and HTML5 platforms.

Minetest – Free and open-source voxel game engine

When you first launched Minetest, didn’t you think it was just Minecraft? Actually not. Although their interface, style, and gameplay are almost the same, Minetest is essentially a free, open-source and cross-platform voxel game engine (written in C++ and Lua, using the Irrlicht Engine). It was created by Perttu Ahola and first released in 2010, and is now developed by a team of volunteers, with significant contributions from the community. It’s available for Linux-based systems, FreeBSD, Windows, Mac, and Android platforms, and provides an API for users to create their own games and mods written in Lua.

Irrlicht Engine – A free, open-source and lighting fast realtime 3D engine

To learn 3D game development with limited pockets, I guess you’ve tried many classic, free, open-source game development engines like TV3D (Truevision3D), OGRE and Irrlicht Engine. By contrast, the pros of TV3D are easy to learn and get started with; its cons are that it was built based on the ActiveX control and requires the RunTime DLL to be registered before running; OGRE is better than Irrlicht in that it has a capable and vigorous engine framework, and supports for extending new functionality in the form of plug-ins (this is better than Irrlicht); but its downside is that it’s not easy to get started with.
