Hardcore Gamer: If you’re a fan of clicker games then the recent 1-Bit Clicker Jam hosted on itch.io is worth a look. Submissions closed this weekend and resulted in 180 entries.
Sony has launched the PlayStation Store "Big Games, Big Deals" sale, and it houses FromSoftware titles and a lot more.
Unity has shared a new tech demo that showcases what's possible in the latest version of the Unity 6 Engine, called Time Ghost.
You never see anything close to these tech demos in actual game releases. More fluff than anything.
How does it feel to not be in the sequel to your own franchise? Their virtue signal will cost them sales
I think Unity exposed themselves last year, and IMO any developer should just stay away from them completely.
Exactly my thoughts, they killed so much interest in their engine since doing that. Godot looks like it's rising to take it's place as the indie darling game engine.
In its current pace, Godot would need decades to reach Unity's current state. Almost no studios use it. For hobbyists, it's a valid option, though.
Gotta be real about it: Unity was and will continue as the market leader for small studios. There's no competition in this sense.
The thing is: there's nothing even remotely as good as Unity for small studios game development, even if you consider the company's disgraced trust.
So, sure, it's your opinion, but most professionals have not and will not leave Unity.
And Godot is a hobby project in comparison, not even an option.
The thing is: this is the kind of comment Unity was getting when it was up and coming.
I remember when I started learning Unity it was looked at with disregard, this is where Godot is now, remember this, in a few years, Godot will get there.

I hope you realize how ridiculous your comments sounds when you suggest "Waiting for Godot" is an option.
It made me chuckle for a good 20 seconds.
@plmkoh
Haha I’m not suggesting to wait for it. I’m saying with all the updates (each one better than the previous one) Godot will get where it needs to, to be considered more than just a hobby engine.
In fact it can already do a lot, it’s all about how you approach the problem.
PlayCanvas, Babylon, Defold, Cocos Creator etc.
This generic statement of "it's not as great as Unity YET" could be applied to any other engine (no offense to these mentioned great engines).
The fact is: it is a hobby engine, almost no studio is using it. As much as I'd like to see Unity fall, it's not happening at all. There's simply no competitor.
Steam's total player count hit an all time record recently, and it foretells the influence that Black Myth: Wukong and China is going to have on gaming.
