As for time... yeah gamedev can be quite time consuming 😅
Don't worry too much about the "missing talent", I know a lot of people that got into gamedev without feeling like they were particularly talented. Gamedev encompasses so many different things that there sure is something that plays into your strengths, and there are plenty of learning resources
Starter Kit: Racing for @godotengine.org is releasing next week!
Open-source and great as a base for your racing game using my well-known sphere ball technique. It might be a little rough around the edges but I really want to finally release this ✨
Will this be the biggest Godot game release to date?
Its public already, just not finished yet. Still in the beta stage, but it's a public beta ✨

We need you! GodotCon 2026

You can find the announcement of the AccessKit integration in the release notes of Godot 4.5:

For now, we have screen reader support in the project manager and for the inspector part of the editor. For all other parts of the editor, it is only supported on standard nodes (not on editor specific nodes). There is definitely still work to do in this area!
Considering that internally the editor is using the same building blocks as games made with Godot, any improvements in this area have the potential to also improve accessibility for gamers.
Though basic screen reader support was added in Godot 4.5 already, but it's not complete yet.

A new tale in the saga of Shit AI "developers" Think They Can Do With Open Source Code: get Claude to "rewrite" a copyleft codebase such that they can declare it a new library and use it without copyleft terms.
OSI needs to do something. It's time to burn it all down.

So yeah I may use such software, but I sure stay away from their communities.
Plus honestly, it absolutely sucks having to think twice before engaging with a community when you know that you won't have any backing by their leadership. And sure I can change my profile picture away from a rainbow so that I won't get harassed, but it sucks when that is necessary.
I mean sure there are definitely some things I use daily that are made by people with absolutely awful views. But that's usually for a lack of a better alternative, and I still would rather use and support a better project if I come across one.
I personally do care, as this is usually also reflected in the way these people interact with fellow contributors and the community. Kinda like the nazi bar problem. I very much prefer projects that actually care about diversity, because in the end that means more people feel welcome to contribute.
oof that sucks.
didn't know this before, so I did a bit of research and this seems to be the case indeed -.-
Just got this email from @mozilla.org saying they want to build their own AI and I haven't been this disappointed since they said they're gonna be selling Firefox user's private data.
So... when do we start building our own browser? 😅
Four people are smiling in a selfie they have taken outdoors. Three men and one woman are all rather tall, white, and brown-to-auburn-haired. They are dressed up fancy in suits and jewellery, as if going to a Summer wedding (they were).

Metacritic has sent a reminder email to all games site editors/publishers which is pretty strong, and great:
Just ask an AI to summarize the reply for you! /sarcasm
The album UI is a bit weird. It looks like just one song, but at the bottom it says how many tracks there are and if you reach the end of a song, it plays the next song from the album. It just has no controls whatsoever to select a specific track or skip back/ahead a track
Great news as both @kaylousberg.bsky.social and me (the asset bois) will attend Godotcon in Amsterdam on April 23rd! Who's also joining? 👋
