Big thank you to all who believe in the future of free, open-source projects like our game engine here.

Why does the Godot Foundation not provide FOSS console ports?
The short answer:
- Legal liability
- Disproportionate cost
- Open source licensing issues

As of late I am deeply conflicted about #GodotEngine ๐ฟ
+ I love the design philosophy; I think it's [one of / the] best libre general-purpose 3D-capable engine out there. I use it and promote it.
- I've learned shocking things about reduz (Juan Linietsky) that made me really sad and I don't trust him in regards to money and power within the project.
I don't want to go into specifics, because there's too much to cover in a toot.
Don't downplay "haters" without evaluating their points.

I'm testing a Steam devcomp which has a Linux depot and a Windows depot, but weirdly, my Steam Deck would download the Windows depot by default.
I asked Steam about this, and they said that only Steam Verified games would download the Linux build by default.

Pier of the Unknown DLC for creature collector 'Cassette Beasts' releases October 4th
One of the best modern creature collectors released in recent years is Cassette Beasts, and it's set to expand next month on October 4th with the Pier of the Unknown DLC.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
There's a lot of interest in #GodotEngine today, so here's my perspective & advice, as the tech lead on Cassette Beasts, a 2.5D open world RPG that shipped this year on Steam, Switch and Xbox, using Godot 3.5. ๐งต
First: I've not used Unity (or Unreal) for more than just trivial experiments, so I can't provide direct comparisons. But there are still a few general points I can make.
Also: I will never recommend switching engine mid-project. If you're gonna switch, do it between projects.
