Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers.

If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of:

Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women."

Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration.

It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women.

Our latest.
European Parliament Votes Overwhelmingly For "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women"
The resolution, though nonbinding, is a significant shot at those who seek to erode transgender rights on the continent.

Pain is when you have a 312 lines long script and you have no idea how to split it up.

If I was in charge of the Olympics I would let the athletes spend their medals to buy special curling stones that leave particle trails behind them.

Potential logo for the game. It took a lot less than I was expecting, but I quite like the result. Maybe it should be the definitive logo.

OpenAI just announced ads in ChatGPT.

They promise not to sell your data or let ads influence responses.

Sound familiar? 🤔

Here's why you should be skeptical 👇

Getting the lava to light up in the dark was even more complicated because it's a tile map, but I made it in the end.

Still not 100% sold on how the corners look.

Glowing fire effect. 🔥

It wasn't easy to find a good-looking result. You know what I did? (1/3 🧵)

How many people like these puzzles? I kinda hate them, that's why I'm not sure if I should keep it...

Finally, I can reveal the release date of Under the Island (even though it was kinda leaked already 😅)
I hope you'll have a lot of fun with this game I've poured 7 years of my life into.

Mark February 17th on your calendar!
Enjoy the trailer!

This is probably going to bug me. I wasn't aware of this change, but now you can press this chain button to make sub-resources unique.

Now I have to be extra careful not to click on it and embed a binary audio file or texture inside a text file. No confirmation either.

Will 2026 truly be the real year of Linux gaming on the desktop? Perhaps! And now even GOG are hiring towards building up their Linux support for GOG Galaxy.

A new Godot version, a new release page :)!

I had the pleasure of working on the Godot 4.6 release page. It was a very enjoyable experience, and I hope people will like it.
