Unity is the world's most popular game engine, but it requires C# programming knowledge, months of learning, and a complex editor. Makermint generates complete 2D games from plain English descriptions — with validated code, AI-generated sprites, and instant web publishing. It's not a Unity replacement for AAA games, but for creators who want to make and share games quickly, it's transformative.
