Fails notability criterion WP:GNG, and subject-specific criteria not found to apply. Virtually all the sources are self-published, leaving little independent coverage on which to base a claim of notability. ☆ Bri (talk) 22:31, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, article is written in a promotional style, with lines like "The engine is known for..." and does not give any mention of drawbacks. Jeb³_{Talk at me here} 18:47, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- The promotional style could be fixed, I believe. E.g. the unfortunate sentence """The engine is known for its versatility, supporting...""" could be just changed to a simpler sentence """The engine supports...". As for the drawbacks, I am not sure what should be added -- the drawbacks are missing features compared to others, e.g. support for more platforms (like XBox) or languages (like C#). I don't think Unity (game engine) or OGRE explicitly list any drawbacks of the respective engines either. (P.S. I think that this is not related to the notability concern.)
