Wintermute Engine Development Kit is a set of tools for creating and running graphical point and click adventure games, both in traditional 2D and 2.5D (3D characters on 2D backgrounds). The kit includes the runtime interpreter and GUI editors for managing and creating the game content as well as the documentation, demonstration data and prefabricated templates.

Alimardan's Mischief
Alimardan's Mischief stays fairly close to home, a "cheerful" game in which "naughtiness goes hand in hand with goodness and kindness, damage coexists with making amends, and a world of virtue is gifted in exchange for the occasional bad in the world." The protagonist has "driven everyone nuts with his shenanigans" like "messing the kitchen, putting banana peels on the floor, and poking chickens," and it soon becomes clear that atoning for one's misdeeds is a whole lot harder than committing them. Originally launched (under the ominously mistranslated title Alimardan's Mischiefs) only on GamersGate back in 2011, the current version released on Steam has been updated with improved localization.
Alimardan Meets Merlin
In its Steam-exclusive English language debut, the sequel Alimardan Meets Merlinsees the young protagonist venturing a whole farther out in both time and space. Having failed to fully learn his lesson the first time around, Ali Mardan misbehaves aboard a spaceship bound for the moon, and in the process finds himself sucked into a black hole and into a fantastical version of the Middle Ages. Here he quickly discovers that " Merlin, the great wizard of Britain, has gone to fight the wicked Morgana, without leaving any trace." With the Wizard of Oz now in control of the city, the boy "passes himself as the Wizard Baby of Oz" and sets out to "solve the mystery of the missing Merlin, the curse of the wicked Morgana, and of course bringing Excalibur to King Arthur…"

Might try it. Looks hard but I'm willing to learn :P
its sad to think this is the engine that was used to make that hideous excuse of a game Limbo of the Lost- still don't let that stop you from using the engine, I've used it and it rates right up there with Adventure Game Studio and the community is extremely helpful (to the point of which they basically programmed all of Limbo without knowing that the guy developing it was stealing their codes and using it in his own game)
If you're gonna use this engine, play nice, respect the community and don't steal other people's content--- else Bethesda Soft will come and sue you too :D. (and possibly Blizzard)
Fantastic that this is up here. Plus, the name? Well, anything with Wintermute is automatically awesome.
Pretty cool to see that the Wintermute Engine is on ModDB now. I wonder if we'll start to see more 2D adventure games.
I'm going to be adding the best ones myself. :-)
