I use AGK2 ,free sound recorder, wings 3D , Icon changer, PNG to Icon converter, and  I think that's about it . I have a windows 10 laptop and a Pie 9 Android phone . I rate wings 3D although Blender might have more features I find it too complicated and so don't like using it . Oh and for creating my non 3d stuff I use mtpaint .

I use direct folders. Not totally directly game related but it's a must when you have separate source and binary folders and also awesome for switching projects

Visual studio community edition, great for front end UI. Innoscript, a great installation scripting tool.

Well, finally got around to trying Unity - after the initial install grumbles - which I think was simply related to Visual Studio wanting to associate itself with a 'registered' user, the first four tutorials are really quite an eye opener as to whats possible in Unity with little effort and a bit of application.

I switched to Unity and have never looked back.

I hated it at first but looking back now I have no idea why.
