If you have been using #Unity and you wanna jump ship to the nearest competitor, #GodotEngine is gonna be your best bet. The structure of a project isn't exactly the same, but it's similar enough that it won't take long to adjust.
Below, I'll give a few tips and talk about pain points you might run into, to help you try it out properly, and make an evaluation. #GameDev

#introduction I'm migrating from https://creatorstudio.space/@xenenic.

I'm a retro hobbyist who seems to enjoy running as many obscure operating systems as possible as well as saving broken retro tech, mostly x86. I sometimes stream my repairs/shenanigans as well as new builds.

Currently working on getting IBM AIX for the PS/2 working on an industrial 486DX.

🧵 Since Unity is becoming the worst digital landlord, developers could form something like a tenants' union, and jointly put forward demands like:

- no per-install fees
- no retroactive terms of service
- no secret tracking
- competitive revenue share
- CEO Riccitiello must go

HEY #unity developers, what resources would help you most for a switch to #godotengine, what resources do you think are missing (especially in regard to C#).

I've done the switch in February and I'd love to work on some resources to make it easier for all!

@lowqualityfacts also, BMI stands for Bowel Movement IQ. It's a measure of how smart you become after you poop.

I’ve said this before. Mastodon is so bad with the ability to upload photos.

Fuck it. #YOLO

#Bluesky continues to be entirely non-responsive to the numerous security vulnerabilities I've reported to them, so I spent the evening writing up a nice README and a framework with exploit modules, and just made it all public.

Have fun.

Well looks like @godotengine are going to be busy huh

Every big company process exists because someone screwed up or because the company was scared of someone screwing up.

What most companies lack is a culture that asks “Did we overreact and should we roll some of this back?” It’s a game changer once leaders encourage this approach
