  • RG3D (Rust game engine) feature highlights

    Thanks! I do have two pretty big games written with the engine - https://github.com/mrDIMAS/StationIapetus and https://github.com/mrDIMAS/rusty-shooter . I've started writing them because it is impossible to get right feature set, without a game that uses it.

    Yeah it did. Commits in the rg3d repo go back to like 2019, and they always had this as a demo for it before they started working on the third-person game.

    It's a little less standard use, but Godot has been used to build application guis, which could be paired with rust bindings to implement app logic. I can't speak to reproducibility/scalability, but Godot's ui is extremely solid, and I'd probably choose that over Bevy until Bevy's ui progress matures.
  • What is Rust's potential in game development?

    Adding onto this, I successfully written a game in Godot using gdnative / gdext. I started with a split approach using gdscript and rust for CPU intensive but found that the API layer was slow at transferring large amounts of data (serialization?). I ended up rewriting it in all rust and it worked like a charm. I was able to target native and web assembly, the web assembly was much slower but worked on the browser.
  • Why is it so difficult to learn to use Bevy?
    3 projects | /r/bevy | 31 May 2023
    Check this: https://github.com/tomuxmon/bevy_roguelike if you are still into bevy. Scheduling is a bit bork and I have not found time to port it to latest bevy. But most of the systems should work fine(if used on latest bevy). But again. If you want faster result go with something like Godot. In fact, just go with Godot. It is mature, easy to start, no lock in(free and MIT license), a lot of learning material. Also with Godot you can also use Rust https://godot-rust.github.io/. Ditch Unity (do not have time to explain 😅). Have fun!

    > Same for Godot.

    While likely true that it's "Unlikely to ever be as supported" as the 4 officially supported languages[0] ("GDScript, C#, and, via its GDExtension technology, C and C++."), Godot's GDExtension technology is specifically intended for use in adding support for other languages.

    The most relevant tracking issue for Rust is presumably:

  • OK so whose gonna tell them

    ...Godot v3.x has Rust support via godot-rust and Godot v4.0 is released as of this month?
  • Godot 4.0 is out

    I was curious, and looked it up. Nothing built in, but there's an interesting project that works with godot: https://godot-rust.github.io/
