In their own words
CopperCube
CopperCube is a 3D authoring tool for making games and apps, including projects created without programming. Its maker cites first-person shooters, adventures, walkthroughs, simulators, and e-learning apps as possible uses. A click-based event and action system supports no-code interactions, while JavaScript can be used for scripting across publishing targets. Visual tools include terrain editing, real-time shadows, static lighting, moving vegetation, water rendering, particle effects, and a built-in lightmapper. CopperCube imports 3D formats including FBX, 3DS, OBJ, and X. Projects can be published as Windows apps, WebGL websites, macOS apps, and Android apps, although Android publishing is marked deprecated. The current editor is Windows-only starting with version 6.4; a macOS editor download is available for version 6.3. The free edition permits unlimited scenes and apps without royalties or a revenue limit. Professional costs €37, paid once, and Studio costs €126, paid once. The maker says projects made with any edition can be published and sold without royalties.
