A refactor of Animation APIs to change the stop(reset: bool) to two separate stop() and pause() methods ( GH-71218 ), as was heavily requested by the community. Some of the most notables feature changes in this update are: Animation: Split pause() from AnimationPlayer’s stop() ( GH-71218 ). A lot more GDScript fixes and improvements!

For example: On GLES3+ we can use UBOs to optimize shader parameters. Added to that fact, Vulkan still has years to go until it's properly supported in most desktop and mobile platforms, which makes it unattractive to implement for us (as it means considerably more effort to write, debug and maintain).

If you are running your game on an external device ( e.g. Android), and using "Deploy with Remote Debug", live script reloading will magically happen in there too. To do this, we added multiple animation support to it, and the ability of simple auto-playing of animations at a given speed without the need of using an AnimationPlayer.

reduz is always quick to respond on IRC, although he is busy developing new features for Godot (during that time, he finished the new Animation editor, the new AnimationTree and visual shader editor. Textures, normal maps and some of the BSDF shaders are already well supported. I am mentored by sdfgeoff and reduz. Amazing!!).

The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. I have to pay to use more than 1 font, or make an animation more than 5 seconds long? (Reminder: for iOS, that means WebGL 1.0 and no WASM.)

Godot can debug multiple instances of the game concurrently so we need multiple instances of the profiler. IK can be used to adjust already made animations, add secondary or complementary motion to existing animations, or even to make completely procedurally animated characters. That's it for this progress report!
