I’m fairly sure that now Epic are “skint” they’re gonna flip the switch and UE6 will be UEFN, at which point *poof*.

Year of the Linux Desktop

A quick run-down on what I've been working on this week!

@k real game devs switching to Linux? Windows 11 might just be a good thing for the world after all! 😁
@ric My game dev started on Linux :D

@k ohhh!

Surprising how uncommon this is really, considering it's the O/S for nerds.

There was a good crowd around PyGame, before Pete Shinners went to Blizzard. I did graphics for a few of the early PyGame releases. And they're still using my logo. :D

@k oh that is cool. I'd not heard of PyGame before, but then I'm not a Python coder. Looks like they started out around the same time as BlitzBasic so I went down a totally different path when I stumbled onto that!
