The 2026 Global Game Jam #GGJ26 was last weekend, so let's take a look at their historical data for engine usage.
📈 @godotengine.org is having a good run!
#Godot is now firmly established as the #2 engine in game jams (correlated by #GMTKJam data), rapidly closing the gap with #Unity.

Really sad to hear today that Freeplay Independent Games Festival is likely coming to the end of its adventure in 2026 after 22 incredible years. Freeplay has been pivotal to my own career and I have some complex, straight out contradictory feelings about the announcement I wanna try to articulate.

In the span of weeks, I've gone from someone who has never used Godot, to struggling to "get" Godot, to really liking Godot, to having taught aspiring gamedevs the basics of Godot, to strongly believing Godot's workflow & structure might be the best approach to developing games for many purposes.

My shop has finally had a micro update due to someone asking for a print, so there's a couple on there plus some originals. I have more originals IRL, but tbh, don't know if I will list them anytime soon, locals are always welcome to come have a look.
