• [Self Promotion Sunday] Retrogram, a daily word game inspired by the 1970s

• Unity’s New Pricing: A Wake-Up Call on the Importance of Open Source in Gaming

  It's not as monolithic as you'd think. There are lots of engines out there but their communities aren't very vocal compared to Unity, Unreal, and especially Godot's community.
