Blazium: Another Alternative to Godot

This is starting to get out of hand cause these forks could just work together

FORK EM ONCE FORKED ARE THEY
FORK EM TWICE THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY
COUPLE MORE FORKS ANOTHER FORK
WILL BE REAL NICE! HAS ARRIVED TODAY...

they are forking nice. blazium is a good idea.

yep and thats why these forks will fail instead of uniting against godot under one fork they are diving resource in many fork which will eventually burnout and fail

I don't like this onion logo

"they didn't implement anything else" do you know how much work is involved? been like 2 weeks

This should help Redot not get behind, competition is always a good thing.

so hyped

in my opinion its about time we get more versions of godot
maybe some of them will have a batter optimizing ...
but redot did bring an odd bug from godot
who was fix in 4.3
ugh the pixel transparency doesn't work
it just give me black color and not transparent ....

Why so many forks all of a sudden? I understand the redot drama but now this? Is there any reason or just a bunch of people said "let's make our own engine leveraging godot which is fine already"?

I really like the name Blazium. The logo needs some work, but at least this fork has that “blazing its own path” feel.

What I would love to see is a new group of developers take their fork in its own direction.

They should take the most recent version, really nail it down, fix everything within that version, then diverge completely from the original and truly make it their own.

Blazium already has lots of performance improvements and bug fixes. I'm using it daily. It works quite well.

currently i'm on Redot, but it has some issues on linux...
i quess we will need to see in the future what engine will replace godot.

why do we want an alternative?

This seems like the startings of a scam. They didn't even update the Github readme. Alarm bells are ringing, I don't trust them a bit. And I don't think you should give them any airtime. You don't mention anything about how lazy this whole thing looks, I think you're just trying to make videos to grow your channel without critical thought about the content.

I have no stake in the political side of this so I only hope that this significantly accelerates the progress made toward a better open source engine altogether.

More choices is good

Could you tell me about redot drama? I don't understand that and why most people hate Redot?

lowkey am i crazy for saying there's just no point in using anything other than base godot right now?

Getting forks is okay, but devs are being split up with multiple fork projects. That's going to affect overall progress. That's the main real people focus on a single distribution like with Blender. Look at blender now, it's a professional level tool. Godot had that potential, but no longer because of excessive forks based on political agenda. We just needed to replace the CM on godoot, there was never a need for forks. These are politically motivated reactionary forks and not supporting the devs. If community is the issue we are free to create communities, even hyper rightwing supportive community that is anti-woke. Nothing is syoping us from creating communities. There was never need for forks. There were several updates that went live after the drama, so dev is not directly involved with the drama.

I hope we don't have too many. It will work against adoption.

This is why people don't take forks seriously

Leading a team requires more than a shared feeling of the others are bad
Cuz even if they were, at least they still have someone to guide them

I can't imagine how difficult it must be to try leading a project with this many people and spotlight involved, worse if they never did it before or aren't familiar with the tooling

So something like this may even happen a few more times until someone actually proves to have what's needed to decide what to implement or not in the new alternative engine
Or you know just keep using the old and established one that still pretty much works and doesn't requires to agree politically to do stuff with it

Honestly this wont help anything, a petition to godot foundation demanding for desired changes and removal of problematic individuals could be better
