The Godot booth was surreal – always packed with visitors eager to play games, talk with their devs, or with engine contributors and power users.

It's been a hectic few days, but oh so gratifying!

Thanks to all the booth staff for your presence, your joy, and your kindness.

We had the amazing surprise to see Color Gray Games' The Case of the Golden Idol win a well-deserved #IGF23 award for Excellence in Design!

It's the first Godot game to win an IGF award, and we're both delighted for the devs, and grateful for the light they shine on Godot!

Check the game out on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1677770

We had our own Godot GDC Meetup hosted by @GitHub, which was a great time to meet old and new friends in a relaxed environment.
