Helle there! I’m Alex from Brazil. I’ve known Defold for a year or so but I never tested for real. A few weeks ago I got really frustrated with SpriteKit (Apple’s 2D game framework) so I decided to test some game engines. Defold was the last one of my list 
but I’m glad that m here now 
Really enjoying the community (I never used any forum but this place is so welcoming), devs, lua and the engine itself. I’m in the middle of development of my first game with it. So far so good. Thanks!
oh and I’m planning to make some tutorials in pt-br.

Hi everyone! I’m Romain from France, I’m new to game development but willing to learn and Defold seems to be a great tool to do it. It’s super intuitive, I’ve been playing around with it for the last coupe of days and it has been a blast 
I’m trying to make a simple prototype card game (Hearthstone-like), I will open a thread later in another section to discuss it and ask for some advice.

Hi! I’m Mike, and I live in the United States (Iowa). My day job is a mix of full-stack web development/database stuff (SQL, C# and JS).
I’ve dabbled in game dev for a several years now, from Tetris clones in VB6, to a released Android kids game in LibGDX.
With Defold, so far, I’ve found myself at least 10x more productive. The performance out of the box is just incredible. The message passing system is a huge selling point as well!
I hope to share more about my games on here as time goes on.

Hi, I am Geeth. Now, I am also a member of defold team. And i have a dream to be a popular indie game developer.
In the game industry, I have seen a lot of copied games. so, i will hope to make games that people have never seen.
And, not only that, I have 2 years experience of corona sdk engine. but it doesn’t match me. it was too hard to learn. I have knew this defold engine before the corona sdk. I think it would be better than defold engine. but it doesn’t. so I omitted that.
And, after I came to this, I felt a big different. And this community is nice.
It is also friendly.
so, in here, I stop my story.

Hi,
My name is Daniel Widgren and have worked mainly as backend developer with Erlang, mostly in areas for voip, chat messaging systems. For a year ago I started to look into game development with some friends to do something fun.
When I did see Defold engine we started to pickup our project again. So we hope to get something out. Started to support Defold on Github.

Hello Everyone,
My name is Matt Chambers, been an IT pro in the west coast of Canada for over 20 years, mostly spent in the ISP sector as a Unix/Linux admin, lately been teaching Linux 101. Been a game developer hobbyist off and on for a few years now, sadly nothing published to show off; but its my goal with this engine. I look forward to learning, and assisting where I can.
Thanks for reading,

Is it fair to say this is the busiest the forums have ever been? It’s great to see so many new faces.

Someone posted Defold to a facebook group earlier this week that’s where I heard about this. That could be where this fresh interest is coming from. I am quite excited about how busy and on-point this forum is.

What group was that? I’d like to check it out!
Defold just went almost open source so that’s how most/all the new people got here and most likely what made that someone post it in your group.
Anyway, welcome, hope you like it here, no matter where you came from!

Hello, new guy here. I’ve been trying defold for a couple of weeks and stalking the forums intensively, I just didn’t have much to say yet. Now I do; i think i’ve found a bug, so i’ll just go pester people there…

Hi! I just picked up defold, apparently I tried it 2 years ago and never really did anything with it (based on my forum account, a year old now lol). Since then I’ve programmed a lot, completed two rounds of #100daysofcode on twitter and learned a lot of java and javascript. My passion has always been to make games. It’s the reason i started learning programming in the first place, so I decided to give defold another go. Looking forward to learning to use it this time around. I intend to do a round 3 of #100daysofcode with it
