This is heartening news especially in the wake of the licensing that Unity and Unreal have rolled out in recent years. Sure, the terms aren't too onerous, but it's always great to have at least one truly open source foundation in your corner.

Interesting that Phaser was also a recent recipient of a Mozilla grant. Even though it targets a completely different developer audience, it's cool to see Mozilla take game making seriously.

If you want to dabble with prototyping games, Godot is the way to go in my opinion.

I've played with Unity and Unreal a bit, each with their own pros and cons, but for me Godot is the one I found most intuitive and easy to test new ideas with. Worth checking out.

Godot is growing to be quite interesting. Hopefully they'll implement well parallelized Vulkan support in some near future.

It's coming up. https://godotengine.org/article/abandoning-gles3-vulkan-and-...

Yes, but hard to say how soon it will be implemented.

Yes, but hard to say how soon it will be implemented.

Notably, the article being from February 2018 tells a lot.
