A 20+ year old RPG maker originally created by James Paige that is still being actively developed today after becoming open-source software in 2005. Has a fairly small but active community. Fairly true to its roots as a DOS program, feels chunky and DOSy in a nice way, but remarkably can export to Android now.

OHRRPGCE has its own scripting language, HamsterSpeak, that reminds me of RPG Maker 2000 if you had to type the commands yourself instead of select them from menus. It can be used to do some fairly complex things, such as side-scrollers. Other than that though, it's a code-free environment to make a fully-featured RPGs, including a built-in graphics editor (BYO audio and music though).
