A little teaser from Jhonny Göransson from the ongoing work on the upcoming Light component for Defold! 💡

This preview shows three different types of lights, each with their own properties, along with how they are represented in the Editor.

What kind of lighting workflows are you looking forward to?

Thank you all for the laugh yesterday! 🧡💙
We've got some of you for a moment, but don't worry!

Defold is and always will be free.

We can say this, because it's in the objectives of the Defold Foundation and it can't be changed, under Swedish law.

Anyway, Defold is Pro by default! 😉

And the Fly Camera is a real feature Joe is working on and will be soon available!

If you'd like though to get the golden version of the editor - just let us know 😉

Counting down for #AThousandBees' release!

👩‍💻 Programmed in #Defold.
I have only been coding for 2 years(ish), and am a bit proud of myself. Luckily, it turned out to be fun! But those problems can keep one up...

A game engine is only part of the story.

The real challenge is turning it into a reliable, cross-platform toolchain with full editing workflow for game development.

That’s a big part of what Defold is about!

From visual scene editors, particles, GUI, and tilemap editors to the built-in code editor for scripts, modules, and shaders, we focus on tools that are practical, streamlined, and ready for day-to-day game development.
