        Probably My Game Engine. It raises an existential question. "A great name but no game engine or a great game engine with no name?". Think of the horse and cart metaphor.

        Peter Wasser "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts." - Bertrand Russell

                    "Me En the Gin Age" -> (anagram of "The Game Engine") Or simply, "No Game Engine"

Unreal[^]: The realism is so real that gamers has to reminded that it is unreal! You can call your game engine, Bluffed. Bluffed: The realism is so real that everyone is bluffed into believing!

                          I'd name it "Logo", so that when people ask what has been used to make that game, you answer "Logo".

                            I called my first one Praetor. Edit: Here is an old video[^]

                            The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
                            This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.
