Godot adoption is rising: what are devs getting out of the engine?
Godot's 'lightweight' features are a major reason why devs are sticking with the open source engine.

2025 was slower than we wanted. But we didn’t stop. We kept learning, kept building, kept trying to find a rhythm that didn’t burn us alive. And honestly? We’re getting there. Thank you for being here, seriously. Happy New Year, Ghouls. Let’s make 2026 a good one. #indiegamedev #UGS #newyear

🎄Merry Christmas, Ghouls. Thanks for sticking with us this year. We’re ridiculously grateful for everyone who comments, likes, lurks, wishlists, or just vibes with our little studio. Hope your holidays are cozy, weird, gamer-filled, and peaceful. Stay nasty, Ghouls. 💖🧑🏼‍🎄 #indiegamedev #UGS #ghoulmas

Unity vs Unreal is like watching two divorced parents fight over who gets the shaders. Meanwhile Godot users are barefoot in the woods making particle effects for fun. We are NOT the same. #gamedevmeme #godot #unity #unreal #indiedev

They say “fake it till you make it” — but no one tells you that even after you “make it,” you’ll still be googling "how to fix [engine] [error] [again] [why]" at 2AM like everyone else. Confidence is just knowing which panic to ignore. #gamedev #IndieGameDev #indiegamedev #devthoughts

Cool cool cool, just casually weaponizing failure like it’s a KPI. Xcorps really said “what if late-stage capitalism was a mindset AND a business model.” Reminder: this is a fictional company in DROIAN. Please don’t try this at your startup. PLS #IndieGameDev #gamedev #indiegamedev
