Redot Engine is Ready and It's Awesome!

[@benrex7775]

I rarely play games and even more rarely make my own games. 2 years ago I worked on recreating a flashgame in pygame. When it comes to Godot and Redot I only heard about the controversy, but I don't know any details. In the end I think it is good, if there is more competition. What I've heard is that there are a few long term annoying bugs in the Godot engine and I hope that Redot works on fixing them. If I ever make my own game, Godot and Redot are probably the game engines I will use. And I hope by then both of them are better than they are now.

Sad that this is what happened to go to and made redot but I hope this engine and the people that are improving it pull through. Never made a game before but I might use this engine not because of what's going on but I've never made one and it seems like this one is running a little better.

I'm coding the light mode while chugging pizzas on my pineapple.

[@LedoCool1]

Also: that thing with FOV and 2d lighting I needed is working in this version of redot and didn't work in godot (admittedly, I used an older version). Hurray!

Godot from the mirror universe

[@igorgiuseppe1862]

there is a fork of godot called "the mirror"

[@cryelectric]

As long as everything is like Godot, I have no need. If they make better mechanics and basic engine improvements over Godot in the future, I'll take a look. Time will tell what really comes. Maybe a third open source “fork” player?

[@godkekliveshere431]

yeah, i am with you on this one also, redot still has some odd bugs. like i can't have a transparent window any more and the fun part is after i open it in godot the bug migrated on the two engines .

[@godkekliveshere431]

yeah, but the transparent windows mode got bugged by godot and redot

Asmr game dev. Perfect to fall asleep to!

[@godkekliveshere431]

i think that redot might be batter at preference but we must do a stress test on this one

[@maikha8963]

The only change they did so far is to replace the blue with their red.

[@godkekliveshere431]

@@maikha8963 i prefer to do a stress test to see the difference also, redot its 135 MB and godot is 127 MB so they must have add some useful stuff or optimize it batter

Still waiting for the .NET builds though.

[@maikha8963]

Soo... red godot engine? Because all the features are literally from the blue version. Show me what's so different about Redot that I can't find in Godot engine?

[@tiagotiagot]

Can't have a fork without a common point in history, and from what I understand their first goal was to ensure they got everything right to start building stuff on top of the divergence point, before starting throwing new stuff in. Makes sense, don't wanna have to waste time figuring if a new issue was on the original or on the new change.

[@maikha8963]

@@tiagotiagot That's what I'm saying. So far there's no reason to switch do Redot

Redot? Is this evil Godot engine? 💀

[@godkekliveshere431]

so far its a bit more Buggie too and some of the bugs even migrated to godot too xd

[@Gfm1rFI9J41PfpfA]

@@godkekliveshere431 Actually, the reason for that is simple... the current Redot build is based off of the 4.4 Beta build of Godot. So, yeah, it makes sense the same bugs would exist in the both engines. Since it's basically the same code. So far, the Redot team have made little to no changes to the actual code of the engine.

[@tiagotiagot]

Nah. What happened is since the first Go got aborted, it's time for a Redo.

[@godkekliveshere431]

@@Gfm1rFI9J41PfpfA well this is disappointing considering in there discord i know two programmers who brag how professional there are . re-skin and somehow add old bugs dues not = you're professional. and the re-skin is not that good too they only change the logo professional my ass also not all platforms are supported like mac , ios and HTLM also i have no idea how rewired my build from C# considering it needs the SDK and .net so far redot mange to give me a lot of heading on simple things that shout not even happening in the first place

[@joelgraff6550]

Redot is a safe space for developers triggered by words.

[@godkekliveshere431]

so are you saying ppl shout not have there safe space because of words if this was vise versa you will call me a bigot over it

[@joelgraff6550]

@@godkekliveshere431 How many typos, grammatical errors, and misspellings can you fit into one comment? Honestly, this isn't that tough. If someone says bigoted things, they are a bigot. If they create a safe space after slamming others for wanting a safe space, they are a hypocrite.

[@Gfm1rFI9J41PfpfA]

Hardly. They already managed to alienate one of the devs they had. Bioblaze Payne. Who has now forked Godot into Blazium. How did Redot manage to alienate him? By being overly sensitive to words as well. Wouldn't you know it, the people behind Redot are actually... exactly the same sorts of people as the people behind Godot. Who would've thought? Oh wait, that actually didn't surprise me one bit.
