This is great news! Too bad there's no C# support as of yet. But it's definitely a step in the right direction. Plus, not all projects need the performance boost of C#. Seems like Godot is about to grab a bit more market share from Unity.

In what way? The website says there is C# support. What facet are you describing needs it? Curious, because would also like to use C#, and website says it does, you say it doesn't. I'm wondering what is up.

      Yeah, thats the main engine site, the link submitted here is for a specific port. Not the same.

  The linked page says the following: No C# or GDNative/GDExtension: Only GDScript is supported. Native extensions are not supported, but you can try to convert them into internal modules.

      This likely doesn't apply to the Switch version due to platform restrictions/technical issues yet to be resolved.

      He's talking about the Switch port library. It didn't support C# yet. But also on the wider topic Godot still struggles with making C# a first class citizen compared to its home baked script language. They're improving things but it's not great yet.

  Even outside of the Nintendo switch, C# is only partially supported. If you want to develop web games in Godot 4 you can't use C#.
