  • One of the things that really stuck out for me is:

    1. they say that only make games to have fun and enjoy the process.
    2. Unity most of the time was enjoyable to them.

    So these two things would make me questioned why they switched. It sounds like Unity became unenjoyable but every game has moments that you do not enjoy. Not a single game's development is all sunshine and kittens. So I question why they even switched from something they knew they could release with and had the most experience with to something else if they really want to enjoy the full process. To me, it sounds like they want to enjoy a subset of the process rather than the full process.

    So then they switched to Godot which they seemingly jumped into the not LTS version and expected it to not have issues. I'm using Godot 4.1.1 and made the switch from 3.x but in doing so I realized I'd be taking a large stop in production of my actual game to get some of the features that Godot 4.x gives as a trade off. Godot 4.x has features that I can't imagine where I'd be without them. For a 2D game though, Godot 3.x is likely what they should have stuck with. The LTS version is always more stable and that seems to be what they are searching for.

    Bevvy, it's not going to be more stable than Godot. It's a very much in development engine, so small I thought it was a game framework. No development goes perfect which seems to be what this person is expecting from their engine.

    • Seems to me like they point out the issues starting at 0:55, and that it's clear those issues are not because of their game or development in general. That the editor was increasingly adding friction on top of concerns they were already ignoring.

      I would say they probably should've tried the Godot 4.X (or 3.X) Rust bindings before switching over to Bevy (especially if they could try something else with data structure, potentially something from the assetlib... Nodot is a thing but I'm not sure if it's what they want).

      I would also say that 4.X does have some improvements to 2D (here's an animated eye I did with a feature new to 4.X, also scene tilemaps allow in-engine polygonal art there too), plus just because they're making a 2D game does not mean they never want to do anything with 3D. (I mean sticking for 3.X for 2D certainly could be a thing, but it may add confusion if they need to switch over to 4.X for 3D)
