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

[–] MossBear 32 points 1 year 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?"

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

Godot has Rust support with GDextensions

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

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

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!
