I'm new to game development.i'm good at c++,c,python so programming is not my problem. but i'm confused between ogre 3d and unity 3d (free version).i know that both are different ogre is something like API and unity is game engine. but i'm really confused which to use for my project. i've 1 month for the project and i need to develop a game with good graphics in small time. can anyone direct me to a right path.? can anyone give me pros and cons of unity and ogre..?.

in short, which one is better for game development..?..ogre or unity (free version)..?

"Better" is a relative term, because each has pros and cons. Ogre has the advantage that it's more flexible and more low-level so if you are intending to become a game programmer (it sounds like this is a programming assignment) then you are going to learn more useful stuff from it. However Unity is MUCH simpler to use and thus you'll get more done in the month.
