title: Suggested platform/tools for rapid game development and game prototyping
body: <p>What platforms and tools should I use for rapid game development and prototyping?</p>
  
  <p>Say that I have an idea for a simple game or a game mechanic that I want to try out, what are the best tools for quickly creating something playable that I can experiment with to try out the idea?</p>
  
  <p>The platform does not necessarily have to be easy to learn, that is not the issue, but once learned it has to be quick to use.</p>
