Hear, hear!
It's been an incredibly stressful week for a lot of indie developers. We've been having some fun at Unity's expense, but we also know that this is a serious issue with real-world consequences.
There's a saying that 'Trust takes years to build, seconds to break, and forever to repair.' The changes announced by Unity have not only broken that trust with their own users, but also damaged the trust that developers put in engines like GameMaker, Godot, Unreal and others every single day.
For some, game-making is a hobby; for others, it's a livelihood. We know that you put your faith in us every time you open GameMaker. We know we don't always get things right, and we've made some missteps along the way ourselves, but we will always do everything we can to secure the safety and success of your games.
Love to those impacted by the Unity announcements. The doors at GameMaker, and other fantastic game engines, are always open.
❤️ - The GameMaker Team

Thor has been an incredibly vocal supporter of our efforts - to make a free, open-source game engine for & directly involving the gamedev community - for a long time already.
This donation overwhelms us with joy, and not just because of the super helpful monetary aspect. [cont.]
This last month you all supported the hell out of me with the world record #Twitch Hype Train. To pay that forward we've given charitable donations to @AbleGamers, @IDFCommunity, and @GodotFoundation.
Able Gamers is a massive resource and community for disabled gamers the world over. Directed by @stevenspohn these rad people put together events and information to directly better the lives of many many people.
The Immune Deficiency Foundation helps forward research into new treatments, diagnosis methods, and works to improve the quality of life for those impacted by Primary Immunodeficiency. This donation was done through @CDawgVA's Cyclethon charity event. Do check him out!
The Godot Foundation is the non-profit behind @GodotEngine that helps financially support the continued development of the engine. Godot is free and open source allowing the next generation of game devs an amazing solution for making games even if they don't have a lot of starting money.
