Oh yeah the bird that sticks to its dinosaur roots the most.

Yes it's skewed towards bigger games (i.e. Steam) and if you include platforms with smaller games the picture is in fact different.

This playtest is for checking if the daily run mode is working well. We have 26 modifiers for that game mode and since there are always 3 getting picked that means there are over 2500 possible combinations. Too many to test all of them individually.

Hence an open source engine can be compared to an in-house engine in that regard.

If I work at Ubisoft as an engineer I can get access to the source code of the engine (I suppose). If I work with Godot as an indie, I can also get access to the source code. If I work with Unity as an indie I can’t.

No I was talking about open source engines – everyone with a computer and internet connection can read their source code.

Me too - except I never got good 😊

One of the best games ever made (but SO HARD)!

Love your capsule art! So bright and colourful!

I seem to have unwittingly unleashed a ... what's the collective noun for rabbit holes? ... well that!

Thanks! Will do!

At least those 3 got their hearts (and heads) in the right place
