Quoting: ValckDoes Godot run on ARM machines?
The website says it "Works on Windows, macOS, Linux, FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The editor runs in 32-bit and 64-bit on all platforms", but I suspect that means all *x86* platforms?

EDIT: Looks like it might <https://godotengine.org/qa/search?q=raspberry>
afaik no, but some people may have ported it, some times is just a matter of recompiling, the main issue being:
the performance will suck, if you dont adapt the code manually in some parts.
in any case, there is an web version now, so you may be able to run it if you/someone host it remotely (there is an official server too) the main issue is that you need an nightly version of chromium or firefox.
and the performance impact once again.

Quoting: Purple Library Guy
Quoting: elmapulunity . . . are moving away from POO
Surely that's a good thing?
in terms of performance, it is, but i'm an indie developer, i wont be making an game that uses 100% of the cpu any tine soon.
so, learning an new model will be pretty much useless for me.

Quoting: GuppyBetween the name and the version numbering It took a embarrassing amount of time before I realized this wasn't an article about Ubuntu xD
lol.
that reminds me when i was at college of game design, and the teacher started talking about Unity.
i was like:
wait, really? they will teach about an ubuntu tecnhology? it has being used for making games?
nope, it was the engine xD

i dont remember the timing, but maybe it was closed to the time that SteamOS was announced, if it was then, i was REALLY excited thinking linux would be hot topic on the college.

unity and godot are my favorite engines, but currently i'm just using godot.
unity droped support for their pseudo javascript, they are moving away from POO (and i dont know anything else =p aside from shaders and non programing langs like html/css) and i dont have time to work on more than one project at time especially using different engines.

Quoting: drlambIt also appears they're paying out for the best/most creative games created within. https://medium.com/unit2games/crayta-prize-fund-details-989ef5d4898c [External Link]
ok, at least they have prizes, but... i dont know, you can make an game by your self and sell up to millions of units, or earn an salary for making the best game for then...
