Newsletter 48: July 2023

tags: newsletter

Editors: @ozkriff, @AngelOnFira, @scirin

Another month has gone by, so it's time to put together the Rust Gamedev newsletter with July's news!

Current Schedule

The deadline for all section PRs is 2023.08.23. (though this year we statistically release significantly later, sad)

We may still accept PRs that are submitted later than this, as long as they're ready before the newsletter's release, but this isn't guaranteed. If you want your section to be included, don't leave it till the last minute!

Publishing Steps

ozkriff commented 11 months ago

Sorry for starting the July newsletter especially late this time, there were some unfortunate family circumstances. Since the issue is so behind schedule, I've set the contributions deadline to a couple of days - I hope to publish the N48 issue by the end of the week and start N49 for August next week.

h3r2tic commented 11 months ago

Thank you, @ozkriff 💞 We're gonna skip July, but we'll have some Tiny Glade stuff to show in the August newsletter!

Jondolf commented 11 months ago

I can write a section for bevy_xpbd tomorrow if I have time. Thanks for including it in the list :)

Rodrigodd commented 11 months ago

Hello! I see that my project tiny-snake.rs is included here.

I can gladly write the description for my own project, but that project is more like a demo for a very low level Rust programming (executing syscall's with inline assembly and such) than a actual game. Are you sure it fits in this Newsletter?

Indy2222 commented 11 months ago

I'll skip this month. If things go smooth, we will have a bigger update next month.

Syn-Nine commented 11 months ago

I'll throw something together for my JRPG. Thanks for the tag!

buxx commented 11 months ago

I will write something about Open Combat, there is some news :)

ozkriff commented 11 months ago

@Rodrigodd while tiny-snake isn't a mainstream gamedev thing, I think it still fits here, yeah :)

Syn-Nine commented 11 months ago

Looks like I won't have time to put something together before the deadline tomorrow. I'll try again next month. Thanks for asking though! -Syn9Dev

If you want to help writing the newsletter:

  • Read CONTRIBUTING.md https://github.com/rust-gamedev/rust-gamedev.github.io/blob/source/CONTRIBUTING.md.
  • Choose one or more of the "🆓 free" sections listed below, and leave a comment letting us know you want to work on them.
    • The links in brackets (like "1 <#m-8757142337512671891>, 2 <#m-8757142337512671891>, 3 <#m-8757142337512671891>") are suggestions of links to include in the section. Feel free to add more!
    • The username listed next to the section (like @.*** https://github.com/ozkriff?") is a suggestion of who may want to pick up the work (usually the project's developer, or someone who has expressed interest in the past).
    • You are not obligated to write a section if you're tagged or your project is listed! You're welcome to ask someone else to write the section, or to ask for your project to be excluded from this month's post.
    • Extra sections not listed in the plan are welcomed - just leave a comment and open a PR!
  • Write a short overview in the newsletter's Markdown file, making sure to follow the style guidelines (see below).
  • Send a PR to the source branch (example: #336 https://github.com/rust-gamedev/rust-gamedev.github.io/pull/336).
  • Mention this issue in your PR's description to link it all together.

Style Guidelines

The full style guide is in CONTRIBUTING.md https://github.com/rust-gamedev/rust-gamedev.github.io/blob/source/CONTRIBUTING.md, but here are the most important rules:

  • Write in third-person perspective.
  • Each line must be 80 characters or less, for ease of reviewing/diffing.
  • Only one image per section is allowed.
    • The maximum size is 300kb for static images and 2.5mb for GIFs.
    • The image should come before the text, and must have alt text for accessibility.
    • Prefer static images to GIFs, to keep the page load times down.
  • Each section should be under 1000 characters, and under 6 paragraphs.
    • This only applies to the rendered text, not the markup.
  • Keep formatting minimal - no bold/italics/etc.
  • Avoid long/nested bullet point lists - no changelogs!

Please use these templates as a starting point:

Games/apps/libraries:

Game name

alt textoptional image label Game name ([GitHub], [Discord], [Twitter]) by @.*** is... {short project description in one sentence}.

{An overview of the recent updates with links to more details}. _Discussions: /r/rust_gamedev, Twitter, etc_
