    Godot is improving very well for 3D (4.2 improved the animation system) and is still very serviceable for making 3D games. The myth that Godot is bad for 3D comes from older versions of Godot where there wasn't a focused development point and that there weren't optimizations made that are now available today. With the graphics rewrite for Godot 4, 3D game development has become a lot easier (and you can use Jolt Physics for Godot if you really don't want to deal with Godot's built-in physics system)

      Yeah, i can see that, in the last version Godot's developer focused mainly about 3D, and i think in the future Godot will more good in 3D, i wasn't know about Jolt physics! i will search about it, and thanks for the explanation.

      I think that Godot 3.x series was also good at 3D-graphics. It was actually capable to photoreal like graphics and it renders fast too but limited to OpenGL ES 3. Occluders were missing at the beginning but that didn't stop developing games using own solution for culling or waiting those to implemented. It is clear that when new major version is released, it is "work in progress". Game development can start like bringing assets and then writing code (looks like they don't break API until next major release), but setting lighting, polishing and testing is done later and then the engine itself is polished and they make stable LTS release.

      So say i wanted a platformer which had a low poly static voxel style 3d background with a 2D viewport character. For example 2D on 3D that'd be a good fit for godot now in it's current state right?

    a port of SFXR is build into LMMS, so if you get LMMS you also have SFXR, and can ofcause include any sound from SFXR into your game-music. That is why SFXR is in LMMS in the first place; To make effects in music.
    Add LMMS' effects like reverb, delay echo aso and you get even more powerfull SFXR effect

    I recently started learning game development in my free time and encountered a recurring issue with Godot 4. When I attempt to save after navigating through some child nodes, the application suddenly freezes and becomes unresponsive. Despite searching for solutions, I haven't found any fixes. I even went as far as deleting the project I just started with to learn game development, again downloading & extracting Godot 4, and updating my graphics driver. My laptop has a Ryzen 5 processor, so I'm unsure what's causing the problem. Consequently, I've decided to switch to Unity and begin my game development journey with 2D projects.
