HPR4343: Interviewing the Redot engine Founder

This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host.

Interview with one of the "Redot Engine" founders, Andrew.

Redot Engine is a fork of the famous free and open source project "Godot engine".

NOTE: This is my first time interviewing someone for a podcast, so feel free to point out any improvements and critiques I can learn from.

After an introduction about the reasons the project was created, we focus on other engines, on the videogame console situation, on a FOSS licensing debate, on Redot's future and on C language interoperability.
