It's time for an introduction thread! 👋
I am currently studying media computing in part-time besides my day job. The studies include a mix of computer science and design with a focus on interactive media. I love creating games and you will often find me participating in game jams! 🎮

Almost done! Each character comes with 30 animations and is CC0/public domain licensed so they can be added in any of your games or projects! ✨

Godot really is pretty good, huh? It genuinely took some time to click, but I've found my flow and am really enjoying my nightly hour or two working on a tiny side project as my upcoming release has started wrapping up.

👀 Some words about Chatto, my BIG project. It's a group chat app that
- is incredibly easy to self-host
- has very modest hardware requirements
- scales really well
- apache-2.0 license
- hosted platform launching in 2026
Looking forward to writing much more about this soon.

Introducing Chatto

Super top-secret confidential internet community pro tip!! 🚀🧠
When a mod is telling you it's your last chance to stop doing something, don't reply with "fuck you". This technique has been found to be amazingly effective!

"Oh sure, let me instantly generate every storefront image at once" is something no game developer ever said... until I added this feature to Kenney Game Assets All-in-1! 🎉

I can't provide further details due to NDAs, but have just been given the green light to confirm Godot runs on Steam Frame. There will be a PR soon to address controller support, hopefully in time for 4.6, but in the mean time Frame works with the touch profile.

This has been a great year for the engine, but there are still a lot of things we would love to do.
If each person visiting our website donated €5, we could hire 5 more developers to work on Godot full-time.

Its binaries were lost to time, but earlier this year I fixed compilation with modern toolchains, so I could rebuild it for desktop platforms.
