if that sounds insane to you, think about how calling something "slop" just because AI was used to help make it sounds

filter out games made with specifically defold. defold is slop, because candy crush was made with it. force engine disclosure to prevent defold executables from distrubuting

I think I'm getting Godot burnout. I've been using it for about 10 years now. I'm looking into Defold and Solar 2D which might be a better fit for my smaller games.

Mathias is working on some really cool stuff for #Defold, exploring ways to make it more competitive with advanced ECS libraries while providing an efficient and powerful C API. 💯

Exciting things ahead!

Did some Defold prototyping with AI last night. While it's kinda convenient, it felt like I was just a passenger on the ride; Boring AF, didn't learn anything, and the AI kept making really bad decisions that I had to fix.

Sure hope this is not how all programming jobs are going to be. Not a fan.

Love2D code is easier than Defold. I don't even know if the editor manages changing "scenes" like Godot at this point or if i have to use some complicated equation to do it. It's the engine for math geeks
