Godot web export progress report #2
Godot is getting better export for the Web. While web technologies are not always suited to provide bleeding edge experiences, we do our best to let you exported game run as smoothly as possible on every platform.
This has been a great year for the engine, but there are still a lot of things we would love to do.
If everyone visiting the site would donate €5, we could hire 5 more developers to work on Godot full-time.

In the past month, the excess donations accumulated so we are finally able to offer enough security to do an extra hire. Beginning November, Gilles Roudière (Groud) will be working full-time for the project, dedicated to 2D and general editor usability!
Godot 3.2.2 was released on June 26 with over 3 months' worth of development, including many bugfixes and a handful of features. Some regressions were noticed after the release though, so we decided that Godot 3.2.3 would focus mainly on fixing those new bugs to ensure that all Godot users can have the most stable experience possible.
New GDScript code is now merged. Here I talk a bit of what has changed, report what else I did this month and talk a bit about my current work and plans for the future.

Godot is participating again in the Google Summer of Code program for its 2020 edition. 6 projects have been selected back in May, and the 6 students and their mentors have now been working on their projects for close to two months. We omitted to announce the projects formally, but this first progress report written by each student will make up for it by giving a direct glimpse into their work.

What has been an idea (and something many community members suggested for a long time) is now a reality. We will be hosting a Live Q&A session with Godot core contributors the last week of each month.

During the past year, Ignacio Etcheverry worked on significantly improving C# support and its integration in Godot, adding support for Android, HTML5 and iOS, as well as popular third party IDEs. This was financed thanks to a generous donation from Microsoft. Unfortunately, due to the Covid situation, the renewal of this grant has been suspended and is uncertain.
The project situation changed a lot for the better in the past few months, with a steady growth in the amount of users and contributors, and a nice boost to our funding situation, freeing donation funds for new purposes. Therefore, we discussed with core contributors that this is a good time to change how the project manages donations, and give our whole crowdfunding a much-needed update.
Report on the new GDScript code featuring the new type checking, warnings, code completion and a few more details.
Godot is getting extensions for Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code, including debugging support and code completion of Godot strings.
As work progresses on Godot 4.0 at a steady pace, a novel method of creating full-scene global illumination has been added in the master branch.
Godot contributors are happy to release version 3.2.2 of our free and open source game engine. It adds various features such as C# support for iOS, 2D batching for the GLES2 renderer, a new plugin system for Android, DTLS support in the networking API, and more! Numerous bugs have been fixed and the documentation and translations have been greatly enhanced.
Yet another release candidate for Godot 3.2.2, including a few new bugfixes that warrant some testing before we can confidently tag it as 3.2.2-stable. We're getting there!
The upcoming Godot 3.2.2 is turning out to be quite feature-packed and we've been taking the time to iterate since the first dev snapshot mid-April. This new RC 3 build fixes a couple recent regressions. It's now considered release-ready, so unless new regressions are reported in coming days, we plan to release 3.2.2-stable in a day or two.
The upcoming Godot 3.2.2 is turning out to be quite feature-packed and we've been taking the time to iterate with four beta snapshots. Last week saw a first release candidate, and now's the second one with a couple regression fixes and more bugfixes and usability improvements.
The upcoming Godot 3.2.2 is turning out to be quite feature-packed and we've been taking the time to iterate with four beta snapshots before reaching a state that we're confident enough to label as release candidate. This new RC 1 build should be quite stable and we hope that many Godot 3.2.x users will give it a try and help us confirm that it's ready to take the place of the current 3.2.1 stable build.
The funding situation of Godot has been changing for the past months, as we received more grants and donations, and reorganizing where the funding is going, deciding hires, etc. takes considerable time as well as the right timing.
Yet another snapshot on the way to the feature-packed Godot 3.2.2! This beta 4 fixes some regressions and adds more bug fixes to make the upcoming release even better.
Showing the work for the new GDScript parser, why it is done and how it improves over the old one. Also show a bit of new features.
