NOVEMBER 5, 2020

I've worked in games for a while now, building upon general software development experience from electronics and RF equipment. It is developed by Autodesk as a proprietary format and thus not a great philosophical match for Godot, but given its widespread use, we want to support it nevertheless. Research & development.
