Quoting: GuestGreat to see another native app. And that from Godot, too! Great to see more devs shifting off Unity! Runs super smooth - love it!
its not an result of the unity exodous, this game was in development for a while, since before the big unity exodous.

Unreal Engine 5 editor quietly gets a proper Linux version

Quoting: gradyvuckovicI think sometimes the more technically skilled developers (or Linux users for that matter) forget that even among developers, there are those who are certainly capable of writing a bit of code and running a python script or clicking compile in an IDE, but struggle with something like compiling a complex piece of software through a build system like cmake, resolving dependency issues, etc.

worse, they forget that there is a magic thing called "learning curve"

Epic Games now supporting the O3D Foundation and Open 3D Engine

Quoting: SolarwingI'm going slightly mad because of these news.:happy:So I must buy a bottle of strong alcohol(one litre ofc) and take part in boozer's running race where you must drink the whole bottle down in one go!:happy:And then you start running downhill! The best part in this race is that you don't know where you wake up in the next morning! For example, you can wake up in hangover in your best friend's bed and and the best part is that there's only your best friend's wife right beside you!:smile:A really cool ending! Or you can find yourself sleeping right on the local anthill in the next morning! A less cooler ending! But again jokes aside. I still don't trust Epic at all. But somehow this is a cool thing to happen when you think there's a rivalry between unreal engine and Open3d. Interesting.:smile:
i suggest you drink WINE...

one of the reasons why unity still supports linux, even with the proton thing:

native version is always preferable i guess.

and looks like godot was used to make their ui or something:

i found another link, its 404 probably because the people were already hired

AYANEO to have their own AYANEO OS based on Linux

Quoting: GroganI'd put money on the next version of DirectX not being easy to translate into our APIs, too.
they cant do that, because the apis are geting closer to how the hardware work internally, an drastic change in api would mean that the performance will suffer and developers will simply stick to older versions of dx.

what they can do and already are doing is investing in hardware, for example, an fast storage/expansion card that they made for xbox and also work on windows-pc
