Is using Godot bad
It's actually good considering it's not screwing over game devs by taking a huge cut of their profits, and it's open source.
It would be good if successful Godot developers contributed to development or financially instead of leaching off of it
I don't think you understand the core concepts of open source.
You say that yet I have contributed to open source software. They are allowed to do what they want with it for free but from a moral sense they should contribute back to projects that they benefit from.
Two things can be true
It's a new thing for a game using Godot to be a bestseller.
Ad infernum and Wrought Flesh used it too :)
I think Brotato uses it too
Cruelty Squad too
Also Cassete Beasts, Halls of Torment, and Dome Keeper.
It’s neither good nor bad for the game. Good for the game development community overall though.
