1. Nice tool for casual and mobile games. 2. Provides a lightweight 3D game development framework. 3. Allows for cross-platform deployment on the web, iOS, and Android, among others.
It's perfect for rapid prototyping and built-in physics engines (Box2D and Cannon.js). It also supports JavaScript and TypeScript, yet performance is great (likely due to C being under the hood).
cross platform deployment-excellent performance on mobile devices with built-in optimisation tools and no licensing fees or revenue sharing
