The Godot Game Engine, Custom UI Widgets, and a Cool Fantasy Map Maker
Today I learned about the Godot Game Engine. It looks pretty neat:
I was checking out this 2019 game highlight reel:
and I noticed this cool fantasy map maker called Wonderdraft:
Wonderdraft
is an intuitive yet powerful fantasy map creation tool for 64-bit Windows 10, Linux, and MacOSX.
It has a nice UI that looks similar to that of the Godot IDE. I had assume that the latter was made in Qt like many IDEs are, but Wonderdraft got me to... wondering.
I dug a little more and it turns out that Godot has its own set of UI widgets which it uses to make its own editor. It looks very professional - I'm impressed!

I'm definitely gonna have to try out Godot!
