There’s four of us in the partnership (Ryan just handles the core xplat stuff). And we are leveraging a lot of OSS foundational components SDL, mRuby, LLVM.

With regards to insolvency. It’s answered in the FAQ: http://docs.dragonruby.org/#--frequently-asked-questions,-co...

I'm not a game dev, but I just want to say thanks for working on this. I empathize and also don't quite understand how the "let's shit on ruby" sentiment spreads even to this, and I was pleasantly surprised to see Among Us is built on dragonruby!

I always love to see ruby's focus on developer productivity being spread, and if I decide to take a crack at making a game, I'll be sure to check this out.

FWIW I think the issue is more that it's closed source than that it's using ruby.

Where did you hear that Among Us was built on DragonRuby? All I can find is that it was written in C# and Unity.

I saw it on the itch website and thought it was for ruby projects, so perhaps I'm mistaken.

itch.io isn't exclusive to ruby games, it hosts games made in any engine. above commenter is correct, Among Us was made in Unity https://innersloth.itch.io/among-us hit more info to see the engine details

This sounds great.

In the event that Godot becomes insolvent, the engine loses the ability to export to console. You must have a business entity to get access to those parts of the SDK. Losing the ability to go to console is a massive hit to the viability of the engine.

Godot doesn't directly offer console support anyway

Realistically this means if porting to console is a priority you should go with one of the dominate engines, Unreal or Unity.
