Never heard of this before. How's it compare to Godot?
It's a fork/continuation of Lumberyard, itself a fork/continuation of CryEngine. That's all I know
I was wandering what happened to it. I saw it at some game conference years ago. It was being promoted by Amazon as Unity alternative with better twitch integration. That was like 6 years ago and it looked solid (like you could actually build games in it, not just some early alpha) but I never heard about it since. So they abandoned and open source it? Interesting.
Yep, that's my understanding. It seems to be the ideal future for abandoned projects like these. One can only wish XSI -and many others- had the same fate
Well since this is somehow (according to them) the ONLY OPEN SOURCE GAME ENGINE I guess this one wins? Jokes aside: I watched a video about this today where the main new feature (instance variants) just didn't work. And that is apparently not the first time this happened. Quite embarrassing since this has (according) to the video financial backing of huge companies (Amazon etc).
