It is high time we started tracking these things as a matter of course in a standardized way. This has already caught a ton of regressions.

Can someone explain to me why the PhantomData<fn() -> T> behavior cannot be the default implied behavior for unused types in Rust? (aka: pretend T is not stored on the type ... because it isn't). PhantomData comes up constantly for me in safe code and it feels SO clunky to me.

It has been a month since Bevy's fifth birthday. We asked the community to reflect on the past year and outline their hopes and dreams for the next year. You can read the community's reflections on Bevy's fifth year here: bevy.org/news/communi...

Fantasy Fencer - Dev Journal 1 is live! My first dev journal video, yay! 😸 I cover the current in-dev version of the game (0.3) and plans for future features on the way to 1.0! 🗺️ Check it out! 📼 youtu.be/O4dloP3gHTM #indiedev #gamedev

Today is Bevy's fifth birthday! As always, I've used this as a chance to reflect on the past year and outline my hopes and dreams for the next year of #bevy: bevy.org/news/bevys-f...

A polished commercial #visualnovel? In #rust?! Made with #bevy?! Better believe it :D Long Story 2 looks super cute, and I'm beyond happy that our #opensource engine could play a role in bringing it to life. Check it out at store.steampowered.c...

🦜 added charged flowers 🦆 ..which grant a lot 'fortune' 🦫 ..and drop special items 🐇 breaking boulders can lightly charge nearby flowers #bevyengine #rustlang #gamedev #solodev #cozygame

🦆 added UI notifications for: 🐇 reaching a new 'level' 🦜 gaining a 'fortune' 🐿️ (optional) restored mana 🐦‍⬛ (optional) lost/restored health #bevyengine #rustlang #gamedev #solodev #cozygame

Arcs and Chains! Now to change the model of notes attached to those chains... #beatsaber #bevy #bevyengine #rustlang

spent way too much time but I'm happy with tabbed settings #rust #bevy #gamedev #ui

I've been working on a #beatsaber map viewer (and hopefully one day, editor) that supports V3/group lighting. Still has a long way to go, but I think I finally have a promising design. #bevy #bevyengine #rustlang

The results of Bevy Jam #6 are in! We had 403 participants, 98 submissions, and 2,203 votes, making this the biggest #Bevy Jam ever! The winner of Bevy Jam #6 is ... A Fistful of Boomerangs! 4d4xfun.itch.io/bevy-jam-6 And here are the jam results: itch.io/jam/bevy-jam...

After years of yelling into the void, the void finally answered our call! The Bevy Foundation has acquired the bevy.org domain, and as of today it is live as our official domain! Everything has been updated, including our Bluesky handle (which is now @bevy.org) and all official emails.

It is almost time for Bevy Jam #6, the official #Bevy game jam! The jam starts on May 31st (8 days from now) and runs until June 8th. You can sign up, read the rules, and find teammates here: itch.io/jam/bevy-jam-6

I just released version 0.3 of Avian, an ECS-driven #physics engine for @bevyengine.org. Highlights include observable collision events, collision hooks, physics diagnostics, reworked contact pair management, and Bevy 0.16 support. The announcement can be found here: joonaa.dev/blog/08/avia...

All this chatter about how Rust is supposedly bad for game development is the exact same chatter I used to read about how Rust is bad for server-side apps, or desktop apps, or OS kernels, or libraries to be called from C, etc. etc. 1/2

Really excited about this release. The performance wins were HUGE this cycle, and we've made a lot of progress on the app development user experience.

It took me a year to finally set up (it taking this long was fully on me ... I got tired of doing paperwork), but I'm officially employee number 2 of the #Bevy Foundation!

Here is a followup to my previous "consolidate #Bevy microblogging" post, which includes our final decision: github.com/bevyengine/b...

This is a hard, but important conversation that I think the #bevy community needs to have. github.com/bevyengine/b...

Did some work on Bevy's catch-all (anyhow-style) error type today. I figured we might as well take advantage of the fact that we can be opinionated and fix the "stack trace noise problem". If you're familiar with the current state of affairs this will look blissfully simple to you. #bevy

My ECS Relationships PR just landed in #bevy! In addition to vastly improving Bevy's built in Parent/Children system, it also opens the doors to custom user-defined relationships, enabling people to easily "connect" entities to each other. Next for me is reactivity and Bevy's new scene system!

I'm @cart.work now! Only serious WORK posts from here on out. Nothing at that domain yet, but I'll probably host a blog there at some point.

The English alphabet is wrong. You missed this. Your parents missed this. Our ancestors all the way back to 700 BC missed this. I am the first person to notice this, making me a once in 2.7 MILLENNIA genius. I'll try to put this in simple enough words that even your puny brains can understand (1/26)

Bevy 0.15 is out now! It features Required Components, Entity Picking, Generalized Entity Animation, Animation Masks, Curves, Function reflection, Bevy Remote Protocol, VBAO, OIT, Chromatic Aberration, Fog volumes, Better Text, Gamepads as Entities, and more! bevyengine.org/news/bevy-0-15

The future of gamedev is open. @bevyengine.org isn’t ready to replace Unity yet, but the value of making steady forward progress, fully decoupled from the need to monetize, with development driven by the community is clear. Not “fully owning” the platform you build on is a liability.

Hi! I'm Alice! I make game engines! In Rust?? I do a lot of design, coordination and planning for @bevy.bsky.social, and sometimes I even write code ;) For now, I'm going to be splitting my social media time between here and Mastodon, but I'll cross-link the coolest stuff.

Social networking has lost its way. We have strayed too far from the path:

guys rate the visual design of my chess game! (made in #rustlang + #bevy btw) #gamedev

Game actions achieved! Cards can be played! #bevy #indiedev

Counting down to next week's #Bevy Meetup #7 with this awesome lineup of speakers, don't miss it: https://www.meetup.com/bevy-game-development/events/304078762#Bevy#7#rustlang #gamedev #ui #linting #consoledev 🦀🎮
