Can they tell the differences between installs or can't they? Either way, they're definitely lying to their users.

It's why software needs to be open source, not just free.

Godot is a good example of a free and well-developed open source game engine. It'll probably see a sharp rise in adoption following this controversy from Unity.

See a sharp rise? Was that an intentional C# reference?

[–] XYZinferno@lemmy.basedcount.com 13 points 1 year ago

LMAO

I work with C# daily and even I didn't realize I made a pun there xD

Maybe it's just embedded in my subconscious at this point...

Yo, is C# named that because a # is made of four plusses?

[–] droans@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yep, it's supposed to mean C++++.

The sharp symbol also resembles a ligature of four "+" symbols (in a two-by-two grid), further implying that the language is an increment of C++.

That's specific enough that I have to assume you already knew that, though.

The year of Godot games is coming

This is far more likely than the year of the Linux desktop

I've looked into Godot for 2 hours and I already am learning how to write shaders. I feel like the available assets are going to skyrocket.
