Been working on AutoTile for GridMap in godot, and I think it is time to share the result. It works the same as AutoTile in Tilemap 2D, but you don't need to create 256 unique tiles in this case. Check it out here: github.com/damarindra/g... #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev
What do you think the largest bundle of game assets in the world costs?
$30 million?
$500,000?
7 kidneys?
$30,000,000 again?
How about $19.95! 🤑

Recently I got invited to join the new Godot UX team. When I have time I will be helping testing editor PRs and make Godot more usable for everyone.
What are some of the most annoying things about Godot UI/UX that you think need attention?
All positions on the website are hybrid 😅

Currently the team at canonical is busy with multi window support so gtk4 migration has lower priority. Ideally it would use vulkan and impeller but for that you need gtk4
Most distros use Wayland by default now so it's less of a problem. As far as I remember, Flutter uses whatever gtk provides
Widelands, the open source Settlers-like devs plan to ban all AI generated contributions
