One of them is closed-source, with a paid dev team. CAD for mining I believe :) The other is aevyrie's[0] pet project, with an eye towards eventual open-source commercialization. Right now, he's been working on building out the fu

Source-available for now, we're still sorting out the exact licensing strategy. The Bevy code itself isn't very impressive at all yet; most of the work at the moment is on improving the engine and solving some of the remaining des

Depends on your iteration speed, exact needs, and willingness to work on engine development. Personally, I'm building my turn-based tactical RPG in it, which is absolutely a Big Project, but I'm not planning to release for a year

Great question; it's hotly awaited by a lot of the community. Rough (and very unofficial) road-map is looking like: 1. 0.6 (June 2021): First-class ECS-integrated UI solution is architected and released. Asset management, animation an

As a Bevy contributor, I can say that rg3d is much more mature and feature-complete than we are right now. They're substantially ahead on animations, UI, sound and rendering. That said, the engine isn't ECS-based (they use a scene

Depends on how quickly you're moving and how much polish you want :) Great for game jams and prototypes, not there yet for published games. Reasonably bug free, yes. Not too hard to upgrade, yes. Are critical features missing or inadeq

Yep, marker components is a much more feasible pattern now, and I tend to prefer tiny, granular components when writing Bevy apps as a result. The only drawback to this design is that you can't add / remove components instantly[

Thanks for chiming in :) Animation is a common request, and definitely still not-very-usable. Thanks to the work of lassade, our resident animation expert, I expect we should have basic animation in place for 0.6. For skeletal animation in

Yeah, there's been a ton of interest in using Bevy for non-game applications. We have at least two projects doing CAD with it, several trying to use it for machine learning, exotic high-performance database-like applications, and some

Contributor here: there's so much cool stuff in this release. I was personally most involved in improving the docs, the reliable change detection work (you can now detect changes no matter when your system runs, even skipping arbitra
