You read that title, a honest to God visual game engine with a similar interface to RPG Maker, Unity & the Hammer editor.


With support for Rom compilations & Steam releases built in
Meaning you can play your games on REAL hardware (With a SD flashcart or reproduction card) alongside publishing it on Steam for easy public accessibility.

Remember pier solar and the great architects?
The multiplatform indie RPG for the MegaCD, Megadrive, Dreamcast & modern PC's? (Plus PS4/Xbox) With MD Engine this could be the standard release model.

Here are a few examples of games made using the engine:

This is the coolest thing I have seen in years.
 
This is literally GBStudio for Mega Drive games. It looks awesome and I hope it really is as good as GBStudio in terms of making a game easilly and utilizing the quirks of the console.
 
These examples look so cool. Even clean and modern. I love these types of things, like the similar engine for GameBoy. There is a bunch of HomeBrew stuff hosted in CDromance made with that.

Very very very cool. Wish they had something like this for SNES.
 
Here's the link to the engine itself and the Steam page Seeing as it wasn't in the op.

With documentation available here:
