CloseI'm just curious as to whether anyone has tried out Stencyl yet as a game-making engine. I just kind of stumbled upon it earlier today, but there don't really appear to be a lot of reviews out there. If anyone has anything positive or negative to say about it, I would like to hear. I was looking at using Unity (I picked it up for free when they were promoting it), but this may be a simpler tool.
For anyone curious but too lazy to follow the link, Stencyl appears to funtion sort of like the RPG Maker series, but it isn't RPG-centric. This is, of course, a brief and surface-level view without having been able to dive into it and check it out first hand.

I've used a bit just for a couple of small things and in my personal opinion it's great, but only if your making a flash game or an iTouch game. If you are making something for those though it's similar to RPG Maker except it lets you view your code for your actions at any point so for example you can make an action for jumping and attacking and then change the tab to view in in Actionscript or Obj-C. If you can't program with code it's still pretty good, even better if their marketplace has taken off yet since it's a resource center that anyone can add to or take from that contains everything from actions, sprites, tilesets, sounds and probably some other stuff I can't remember. Also should probably mention but it doesn't seem very 3D friendly for that stick to Unity.
