Thanks to Thomas Frohwein & Omar Polo (maintainer).

Hint: You can #PlayOnBSD many of your favourite @godotengine games e.g:

Nice! @thfr has sent a diff to #OpenBSD tech@ adding Rumble/Force Feedback (aka Haptics) to the ujoy(4) gamepad driver, along with patch enabling it in SDL2. ​

Be sure to test it if you #PlayOnBSD and have a compatible controller! ​ ​

BTW, #PlayOnBSD folks, have noticed that SDL2 got weirdly slow recently on NetBSD?

Previously, as my program started, my window would blink twice before continuing and it would work fine thereafter.

Now, it blinks once and the game lags badly.

TBF, my SDL2 builds are only for debugging/development and I'm very likely using it in the wrong way.

SDL1 , which had a different rendering model, on the same machine runs beautifully.

Published a WIP demo of Tragrady of the Uncanny (sequel to Derelict) as a HTML5 playable game on itch.io. This is a temporary version, since it is being developed with the #gba and #msdos in mind.
