Ma did so knowing the potential upside was becoming a billionaire. How many of these workers can say that?

You'd then be biasing it towards the opinions of people who can afford a 10,000 dollar bet. I'm not sure that that's any better.

It kind of defeats the purpose of GPL too. You can't keep future changes to the codebase public and open source since anyone who wants to do so will just not use your fork, so why bother?

Regarding Fuschia only having an option for vulkan and not opengl, it doesn't seem like that would necessarily stop opengl software from working on fuchsia, right? There are opengl implementations on top of Vulkan like MoltenVK. I do

To be fair, the analytics are opt-in, and they show you the json that gets transmitted prior to sending. It's by far the best implementation of telemetry that I've seen in terms of respecting the user. The thing I think Ubuntu ha

There are games which do something similar. Alpha Centauri for example gives you four category options to choose from (corresponding to the 4 x's, if my memory is correct), and then you get one of the next techs in the pool from your

I think that's a common perception of the site, but the barrier to entry on Steam nowadays is a 100 dollar fee. Nowadays if you want your game on Steam, you can get it on Steam.

Performance is a feature. If you want your game to have as large a playerbase as possible, it needs to perform well even on bad hardware. I strongly suspect that most people will write their entire game in an engines default language. Esp

It is not ready imo. Someone correct me if I am wrong about any of this. Their custom scripting language is extremely slow to the point where I wouldn't consider using it. You can use C#, but if you download the c# version you get a w

> (since visibility is based on sales). This is a point I don't see mentioned often enough. I've wondered in the past if it's actually better to forego every other platform in order to increase visibility through Steam.

Poor wording on my part. I wasn't referring to the OS's running on top of the VM, but rather the infrastructure that's running the VM's. https://www.quora.com/What-technology-is-Azure-running-on-Is...

The last time I installed, they designed the installation screen so that it would be non-obvious that you could toggle those settings off. For instance, they had the link to the page to toggle those options on the bottom in small text whic

That's a shame. I personally find that nowadays, older games tend to run better on Linux with Wine than on Windows 10. Civ 2 for instance runs flawlessly on Wine. Even on Windows 7 I had to install a fan made patch to get it to run w

I feel that it has a good and growing game dev community, but all the tools and engines need more time in development. There are a few game engines and frameworks being built with rust, but (someone correct me if im wrong) they all either
