We're making a metroidvania with a focus on schmovement. Our less traditional upgrades are more expressive with a high skill ceiling and can be chained to make some beautiful flow. If you're interested, wishlist Iron Bramble on Steam! #indiedev #indiegame
As an indie games publisher, we're often asked how we're integrating AI into our business. We're not. Please never ask us that again 🖤
For years we have been overwhelmed by the volume of code contributions we have to review, especially from new contributors. AI has made the problem much worse. That's why we are taking steps to reduce the burden on maintainers while still welcoming new contributors: godotengine.org/article/cont...
Changes to our Contribution Policies – Godot Engine
Godot is growing fast, so here is how we are dealing with the huge increase in contributions.

Starting messing with melting beads recently. I thought I’d start by making the player from RavenStar! There’s something so satisfying about seeing your pixel art take physical form.
This is a really great extension to add to your browser. You don't even have to open the pages now to see that it used Gen AI.
A reminder with #SteamNextFest starting: You SHOULD install the extensions that pop up the AI Disclosure in Steam and ignore any game with it.
