Just posted this week's #bevymergetrain 😁 https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:fjg6pzaigjmfpsfnbyp6m5oc/post/3m4qp6zgvzc2j
A fun mid-length train this week, with an unexpected subtheme on "how we can we easily allow users to migrate their code between versions". Thanks #bevy, it's always a pleasure to write these <3

The Exofactory Demo is officially out. A ton of bugs have been fixed thanks to the testers during the soft launch period particularly on the #Linux build.
The game is written in #rust with #bevy and it’s been a great time. The game is releasing as part of Steam Next and the algorithm really matteres for #IndieGameDev so if you are interested in the game I would recommend checking and and playing the demo early this week if you can. (That and it’s fun). https://store.steampowered.com/app/3615720/Exofactory/
The Exofactory demo has been soft launched and is available to download on Steam. So so so much work. Lots of game dev specific stuff in this one. If you play it do let me know if you see any major bugs. Lol. Will hard launch as part of Steam Next fest but you can play it now. #GameDev #rust #bevy https://exofactory.net/blog/2025-10-07/

🎆 Bevy Hanabi v0.17.0 is out!
This new version is compatible with Bevy 0.17, but that's not all. It's also bringing some long awaited mechanism to detect when an effect is compiled on GPU and ready for simulation, and will prevent ticking spawners until then. This ensures one-shot/burst effects don't start before the GPU resources are ready, to avoid missing some particles!

Seeking feedback from Bevy and Big Brain users: how does this new API look?
Under the hood, this would be a high-performance, low-overhead API powered by Observers, but this is all you would actually need to write yourself.
I'm pretty sure I can get this to work with Bevy's current featureset, including the Very Fun async actions situation here.
FYI: As part of a larger move away from GitHub, I've archived Big Brain on it and moved all future development over to Codeberg, at https://codeberg.org/zkat/big-brain
Please use that repo from now on.
Additionally: I am in the process of trying a major rewrite of the crate that I'm hoping will be much simpler, and much more efficient, thanks to features now available in recent version of Bevy! I'm very excited :)

I'm just gonna keep waiting until the Bevy Editor finally comes out to try and write a game with the engine in earnest. I keep getting ideas but I just don't really wanna deal with writing something as complex and difficult as a game, with my hands tied behind my back any more than I have to.
that said, I'll probably be poking around the ecosystem sometime soon, after reading those updates on the observers in 0.17. They would make big-brain so much nicer to use, and probably simplify the implementation a lot (it would probably be a full rewrite?)
Hi #bevy ! It may be release season, but it's time for a quick #bevymergetrain. As I explained this morning in a mentoring meeting with a PM from #godot (!), each week, I go over the community-approved PRs and make a final call.
Let's take a look at the 8 PRs: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3AS-Ready-For-Final-Review
He fet un primer joc senzillet amb #rust #bevy - el podeu provar a https://carles.barrobes.com/game.html - Programar videojocs és molt diferent dels tipus de programes que faig habitualment (aplicacions o APIs per a web), i la veritat és que Bevy sembla molt ben pensat per a això. Una experiència molt refrescant. Kudos @bevy
