I first met Clayton Kauzlaric when he was hired at Cavedog to be the lead artist on Total Annihilation. We quickly because good friends and over years have collaborated on countless games (if you can't count higher than 9). We made casual games for Real Networks, co-created DeathSpank, and made iOS games like The Big Big Castle and Scurvy Scallywags.

It's been a while since the previous progress report, as I went on vacation in November (did not take a vacation in years.), and December I had a lot of other engine related tasks that piled up that I had to solve. Work on the Vulkan branch resumed at the beginning of January and significant progress was made already. See other articles in this Godot 4.0 Vulkan series: Vulkan progress report #1.

We're now very close to the final 3.2 stable release! To validate the last changes done over the weekend before actually releasing the new version, he's a (likely) final Release Candidate. If no new critical regression is found with this build, 3.2 stable should be more or less the same. Over 350 issues have been fixed in January alone, bringing the 3.2 version to a very good standard.

As announced a few months back , we are organizing a Godot Conference ( GodotCon ) in Brussels, Belgium in a week, on 3 & 4 Feb 2020. We expect about 75 attendees, so this should be a great event! As usual, this GodotCon will follow the FOSDEM which also takes place in Brussels, and where we'll have a Godot stand as well as a few Godot-related talks in the Game Development devroom which some of us co-organize.
