Hi all,

I’ve decided to start a GameDev community as I didn’t see any on this instance or others.

What’s your relation with game development?

I’ll start; I’m a hobby game developer at most, mainly having experience with MonoGame (based on XNA) but I switched to C# + SDL2 (using SDL2-CS). Currently writing my own semi-engineless game (I don’t want to say that I’m building my own engine, but I do have some reusability for my own sake) while figuring out SDL2 and always looking for best practices.

I tried Unity, GoDot, Unreal Engine and more over the years, but as someone with a background in software development the freedom of the code-first approach always works better for me.

Welcome!

    I’ve been unity Unity professionally for 10 or so years now before I went indie, but I generally love FOSS software so I have been trying to learn Godot and plan to swap over after my current project is finished. I will say that the documentation support for Godot Mono isn’t that great. I hate python-esque languages so I will still be using the Mono version, but often it requires a bit more googling or trial and error to make sure something works in the mono version.
