Hey everyone! It’s been awhile. But I am glad to announce that I released v0.1.0 for [JulGame.jl](https://github.com/Kyjor/JulGame.jl), the 2D game engine I am writing in Julia. This release is the first version of the engine that I feel is usable. There are bugs and things aren’t super intuitive yet, but it’s a start. Along with the release, I am creating a short tutorial series to create a platformer with the engine. Here’s the first video:

You may notice that there is only a windows build of the editor, but I can assure you that you can run the editor from source on both Mac and Linux as my main desktop is linux and my laptop is a macbook. I was having issues with trying to create the binaries for mac and linux, so they aren’t available at the moment.
