Feel free to link relevant communities here! When I think they're relevant enough I'll add them to this opening post.

Alternative game development communities:

Engines/frameworks:

Art and story:

Game- and industry news:

Modding, reverse engineering and preservation:

Game development jobs:

Things of note: The 2nd link in the list above is a relative link; as long as you're on a Lemmy-instance, it should link to the right community relative from your instance. If you get an error saying '404: couldnt_find_community', you will have to search for the community first. For example: [/search/q/[email protected]/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1](/search/q/[email protected]/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1). You will get no results, but visiting the linked community should now work. It can take a little bit of time, and posts might not instantly show up. If it still doesn't work, the linked instance might be blocked on your current Lemmy instance. I'd recommend asking your admins for support at that point.

Awesome! I've added it to the list (and joined)!

I don't use modern Unreal Engine myself but I've used the first one a bunch back in 1999 haha.

Thats some OG Unreal Development - i didn't even know the engine was open to the public back then, all i remember from that time is "Unreal Tournament" lol

To be honest it was mostly a combination of using the map editor and modding, similar to how Tactical Ops started out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactical_Ops:_Assault_on_Terror

Except I never released something besides playing my custom maps and mods on LAN parties with friends :D
