I'm sure this will give a boost to Godot development.

[-] MossBear@lemmy.world 32 points 2 years ago

It already has. The Godot Developer Fund went up by $4,000 yesterday alone.

Ha, yeah my immediate thought was imagining a situation like:

Godot Developers who have not yet read the news: "Huh. Why do we have 1000 new pull requests today?"

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

Ngl, I did visit their site right after reading the news. My next project will be using it. I hope it catches wind with this!

as someone who was reasonably deep with unity, the alternatives really are quite thin - Godot is a big contender or otherwise it's time to pick up some Rust game development

[-] nix@merv.news 6 points 2 years ago

Godot has Rust support with GDextensions

Is Rust a game engine?

I’m familiar with the coding language but I wasn’t aware of any game engine stuff outside of developing your own

Stride might be worth looking into if you're going for 3D stuff, it uses C#
