Are there testable demos for alternative game engines?

Hello everyone.

I am getting interest in alternative game engines like Open3D Engine, Godot, Flax, Stride, Bevy, etc...
But I'm surprised how hard it is to find any "playable" demos of these. The only things I was able to find were screenshots and videos, but no proper executable that shows off their performance...
Do you know any demo for any alternative engine (by alternative, I mean, not Unreal or Unity) ?

Thank you :-)

And for Godot there is also the asset store, the Showcase, GDQuest's own Demos tutorials and of course the couple of commercial releases (two of which had developer interviews this year: Usagi Usima and Cassette Beasts)

I have the same question. I will at least respond here if I find anything soon, otherwise hopefully someone else has some resources to share. Working examples are so useful for getting started in an engine.
