In 2020 I realistically was considering making Witchcrafter in Godot.

It was (and is) very promoted, all around was bragging about it, I was envy of some glossy features and as a budding #indiedev I thought it's an easy way.

But why I didn't moved to #Godot in the end?

🧵
Godot is presented to us almost anywhere I can imagine, so it's not strange I bumped into it at some point.

It is also promoted as a perfect tool for indiedevs with a lot of tutorials and examples and ngl - it's impressive (the same with Unity, I also considered moving to it).
Envy of the glossy features, out of the box solutions, I started making a simple platformer base with all the stuff I want.

But, oh boy, was I misguided by the easy learning curve.

Having using Unity, Defold, Blitz 3D and some other smaller engines I though it would be natural.

¿Estás haciendo un juego de estilo retro y necesitas algo que acabe de darle el toque?

¡El paquete de shaders GodotRetro te echará una mano a tu estilo visual!

Link, pequeña explicación uso y ejemplos en los siguientes tweets🧵👇
#gamedev #gameart #godot #madewithgodot #shaders
Antes de nada, todos los shaders del paquete GodotRetro tienen licencia Creative Commons 0 (CC0) por lo que puedes utilizarlos en cualquier tipo de proyecto (sea comercial o no).

Estos shaders están en su versión 3.0 y funcionan sobre la rama 3.X de godot (incluida la 3.5). Icono de GodotRetro 3.0
¿Qué es un shaders? Simplificando, es código que se ejecuta "directamente" sobre la tarjeta gráfica (GPU), a diferencia del código de programación tradicional que se ejecuta en el procesador (CPU). Nos permiten modificar colores, texturas, modificar vértices, generar efectos... Shader que genera hierba corriendo en tiempo real en Godot.

Juan "The Great", aka @reduzio, once said:

"The world does not care about you or what you think, or about your world views. Keep those to yourself."

These are petty tyrant's advice that undermine critical thinking, creativity, individuality...

Opinion on the above @reduzio advice from someone who does not have an idea what #Godot represents.

In retrospect, I was highly attached to #GodotEngine, and I used to think that there's something wrong with me.

Having access to outside opinion is crucial.

#GodotCult #IGotOut Image
So yeah, I did reach out to someone from the outside, as you see above. Otherwise, I'd still be contributing to Godot and continue being deluded by Juan's cult indoctrination.

Expressing that people are sane is seen as an insinuation and a slippery slope in #GodotEngine community. 🤦‍♂️

But when #Godot community calls others insane when they talk about Godot shortcomings, it's fine. 🤷‍♂️

To quote @Akien: "Let's not go there please." 😉

#TruthAboutGodot
To give this context, we talked about master/slave terminology in Godot and IT. You can even see articles such as these:

Ironically, what you read above totally describes Godot. It's one of the biggest echo chambers out there in #OpenSource game #GameDev community, because dissenting opinion about Godot is seen with hostility. This is also the reason why I say that Godot leadership is hypocritical.

Godot cultists make up conspiracy theories about me on their subreddit again. Give me a break! 😂

#GodotEngine #CancelGodotEngine #GodotCult

First and foremost, the fact that Godot cultists call me a conspiracy theorist is nothing new. See my other thread (make sure to scroll down to see the educational video on cults):

The fact that they keep talking about me in this context is really good, because all their words and actions prove everything about Godot being a cult.

I oftentimes read that #Godot's development is driven by passion and out of love for those who make games. Why not just develop #GodotEngine independently, then? Why receive donations? What, having passion is no longer enough for Godot to thrive?

#CancelGodotEngine
This so-called "love" that the lead developer of Godot tries to portrait, Juan, aka @reduzio, is nothing more but love bombing. This "love" is accompanied by "become Patron", which makes it a truly IT cult organization which aims to milk money.

You'll read phrases like "preaching gospel of Godot" from those who donated to Godot via Patreon already. I'm not kidding, you can look at articles such as this one.

Some Unity users and even moderators within Unity community are infected with the futile ideology of waiting for Godot! This must be fixed! Let me explain why.

#GodotEngine #CancelGodotEngine #Unity3D #Unity #GameDev Image
As you may know, Unity recently merged with ironSource: blog.unity.com/news/welcome-i…
This created a mass hysteria on Unity forums. Because of this, Unity folks were heavily discussing Godot there to consider switching to as an alternative to Unity, so I decided to share my perspective there:

Godot is an invasive culture of imitators and wannabes that enjoy plagiarism. They are irresponsible and don't respect trademarks. Serious and responsible organizations that respect themselves don't do any of those things. #GodotEngine #CancelGodotEngine Image
