GOG GALAXY is officially heading to Linux. At the same time, we’ve reworked the client on Windows and Mac to be simpler, run faster, and give you cleaner ways to view your library. Most importantly, our core promise stays untouched: GOG GALAXY is entirely optional. Your games are yours to download and keep through offline installers, exactly as they’ve always been.

C and C++ support in Defold keeps getting better!
In 2026, we've already added:
🔊 Sound group mute functionality in C++
⚙️ JobSystem C API
🪟 Window Creation C API
🌐 HTTP C API for native extensions
🧱 Shader Storage Buffers in dmSDK
🛡️ Generational Game Object Handles and new Collection Resource APIs
🧊 Cubemap Render Targets and updated native rendering APIs
And in the latest 1.14.1 Beta:
🎨 New Render Item API for C++ rendering integrations
🔧 OpenAPI discovery for runtime debug services and native extensions
We're not stopping there!
Our long-term goal is to expand dmSDK to make it possible to build entire games in C++.
We're also continuing to expand the C API in dmSDK, exposing more engine functionality and laying the groundwork for integrations with other programming languages.
🌘 Lua is still the core scripting language and it's not going away, but we want to expand the possibilities of native extensions.

Take a deep breath, because we’re about to spill the tea ☕️ Affinity is coming to Linux, it’s in active development, but we’ve got no ETA to spill just yet.

45 people. USD 500+. 25 days to go. To everyone who contributed to our fundraiser: we're grateful. Thank you.
To those asking if this is a scam or a takeover: no. The funding page is on our domain. itch.io has been the main way to support SuperTuxKart for a decade. Patreon has been up for months. BTCPay runs on our own server. Check it out yourself: fund.supertuxkart.net
Some of us have been building this game for 15 years.

The Florida Learjet crash had a male captain and female co-pilot. It occurred during a severe thunderstorm. The NTSB is investigating. Studies adjusting for experience find no significant difference in accident rates between male and female pilots.
