The correct term is "freemium".

@LukeAlmighty anyone still using unity after the ceo started saying "game devs don't monetize enough and they're fucking stupid because of that" and teamed up with a spyware company kind of gets what is coming to them.

I feel bad for the devs who can't really change their engine now, if they're too far into their project.

The sad thing is that this will just push more devs to Unreal, who already has a huge market share even in the AAA space.

This is also kind of the problem with "free" game dev tools in general. With a paid engine like RPG Maker you don't have to owe any royalties whatsoever. That's one thing that I really like about it.

I'm going to be learning Godot as soon as my current game is finished. I may or may not use it for my next one, just depending on how fast I can learn it and how intuitive it is.

Okay, I've been neglecting on a Windows port for my SFML game, Distant Ruins for quite awhile now. If anyone is willing to do it, that would be appreciated. You should be able to compile it with MinGW. The build.sh script can easily be converted into a batch file with a few modifications. Run it and you should be able to get a working Windows executable.

Let me know if you are able to do this.

@ArdainianRight @hachi Sakurai's channel is the only gamedev channel I know of that doesn't talk about trannyshit in games. I hope it stays that way.

@Nudhul @PurpCat Meijier is a grocery store chain in the Midwest. It's not as cheap as Wal-Mart but the shopping experience is much better, IMO.

@PurpCat Don't you live in the midwest? Shop at Meijier instead.

@danielhudson You should be lethally injected first, you fucking weirdo.

@PurpCat @djlink I know it's open source, but it's still Microsoft controlled. I don't know if there are any telemetry in it, but I don't know of any viable forks ala LibreWolf.

@PurpCat @djlink He already listed MonoGame and even then, it should be used with caution as Microsoft controls both .NET and Mono.
