No good engine. The existing ones are toy projects nobody wants to use, and writing a serious engine (not even something akin to Unity, UE or Godot, but the lesser known ones) is basically impossible because...

...the language is not suitable for game development. A game engine is a giant state machine with entangled objects with a short lifespan that reference each other all the time.
ECS is a meme and using it in Rust defeats the purpose of using Rust in the first place, as you're trying to go around the borrow checker by moving ownership, reference and lifetime management to the runtime. You're better off using C++.
