This is kind of huge, isn’t it? I’ve been seeing this engine around for a while (it was still in closed alpha I believe) and it seemed really well done. It’s a Godot fork that’s intended to be a simpler experience like Roblox, where it has visual scripting, handles all the multiplayer itself, and allows you to create worlds collaboratively with friends and co-workers in real-time.
The only thing people seemed iffy about was monetization and its closed-source nature, but now that it’s here and FOSS, anyone think it might blow up and be a great introduction to game development for beginners and kids?
I’ll probably test it and see how it is later, but it does seem like it’s still in alpha.
That might’ve been the investor pitch but luckily it doesn’t seem like any of that has made it into what exists now. Seems like they’re just going to take a percentage of profit from games on their platform.
