It's that time again, folks: #GodotEngine 4.6 is now ready for broader testing with its first beta snapshot! ⚗️ No new additions to showcase, as we were already in feature freeze, so we can jump straight into the main highlights of this new version: godotengine.org/article/dev-...

This has been a great year for the engine, but there are still a lot of things we would love to do. If each person visiting our website donated €5, we could hire 5 more developers to work on Godot full-time. 👉 fund.godotengine.org
