Cryengine Community Edition Games from scratch just reported about the current Cryengine 5.7 being updated by the community into its own community edition. Since Crytek has no word about the next update to Cryengine 6 this is a semi open-source solution to take the Cryengine forward. A previous forked happened with Lumberyard as a fork of Cryengine 3. But Amazon did not managed to make it as mainstream as Unity or Unreal and spun it off to its own open sourced project O3DE.

Looks like a Cryengine community version is in the works as no word om Cryengine 6 but some limitations still apply as it’s not fully open sourced.

My colleagues at Bloomberg report that the $20 billion debt in the EA deal is expected to be rated single-B — meaning it is considered a "junk" loan, or one that is high-risk and speculative, typically offering high interest rates. Which the new EA will have to pay

Wild that EA managed to find a buyer who cares about video game workers even less than EA.

Pivot to Unreal Engine for future projects After months of struggling with Unity's C# requirements, I made the switch to Unreal Engine 5. Instead of spending weeks learning programming concepts and debugging templates, Unreal's opinionated structure and Blueprint visual scripting let me build a complete UI system in just 2 days. Here's why matching your engine to your skillset matters more than following industry trends.

Spent months fighting Unity's C# just to make a simple vampire survivors clone 😅
Switched to Unreal Engine 5 + Blueprints and built my UI system in 2 days vs weeks in Unity.
Sometimes the "wrong" engine choice is actually right for YOU as a developer 🎮

Dan Carlin on why (in this age of AI) people are increasingly seeking out real-life experiences:

"As it becomes harder and harder to tell what's real and what's not, I think human beings start to seek authenticity. Maybe old time theater comes back... maybe this creates a thirst for authenticity."

Wait is that weird?? SEGA kids existed what

Isn't that a fuckin beyblade

Indie devs panicking about pricing against Silksong: STOP.
Gamers buy on emotion, not logic. They'll grab your metroidvania too "for later." Price for your value, not your fear. Big releases create opportunity, not competition 🎮
