  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

    There’s lots of stuff these days. Is Rust a game engine though? I’m familiar with the coding language but I wasn’t aware of any game engine stuff outside of making your own

      There are several projects to build a game engine in rust. The one I hear about most is Bevy. No experience with any of them personally

        Thanks for sharing, I’ll check it out. Games in rust could help that whole endeavor in finding insecurities and whatnot even faster with game hackers and whatnot too

  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!
