3. Do you know any good game engines, or game creators (FREE)[/b]

How could I forget the easiest way to start free game creation, even if it's not from scratch.
Level editors for existing games.
Many games comes with level editors, or those can be found on TeH internet.
Think about Unreal, how many good levels/new artworks/mods aren't made for that one?
Give this site a look:

You can say they made almost a new game out of it. And to play those maps in COOP is a refference regarding what can be done with an old game.
Another one is (again) DOOM. More specially DEU (MSDos) and WinDEU (Windows) level editors.
Don't think it's an obsolete game, too old to put some effort in it.
All your levels can run in JDoom, DoomsdayHQ and other more modern ports.
And of course most old platformers have those editors. Look around for it, not hard to find, and usually with full manuals.
It's a good begin, creating levels for games, gives you an idea what it really is, making a game.
A long boring process of debugging and frustation.
