For others wondering what Bevy [1] is, it’s a “data driven game engine built with Rust.”

To the author (who shared this here): please include a link to Bevy in the first few lines of the post. I know what Rust is, but didn’t know what Bevy is. I didn’t find any links to it or a single sentence description of what it is in the first half or more of the post. Though I searched online and found what it is, it would’ve been nicer to have the article state it explicitly (especially since Bevy seems to be relatively new with release versions in 0.3.x).

Fair point, will include a link to it.

I really liked the breakdown in sections. Have been trying to get into Rust and use Bevy so great timing.

Working with Bevy is a challenge/interesting at the moment with the iteration/rework of key areas but enjoying it so far.

Wow, this link completely locks up my android phone. Requires hard reset. Now I can't even open the browser, since it automatically runs in a tab.

I could probably lazy-load the videos, if that's what's causing it, but despite all the videos and images the page is only 1.2MB. Can't figure out what would cause that :/

What phone/browser are you using? Works ok on my Moto G5 with Firefox which does have problems crashing/reset on some websites but not sure why.

Brave

I had the same exact effect on my Pixel 3a. Happened 3 times in a row.

Wow my in app browser just crashed when I tried to open the link..

Took me a little bit to understand that the diffs were at the top of the section, not at the bottom.

Might be interesting to add a link to a wasm version to the article.
