# Rust GameDev News 44: March 2023 🐌

https://gamedev.rs/news/044

This Month in Rust GameDev for March 2023 is quite late (new record!) but it still brings a lot of interesting updates - about 23 games, 4 engines, 9 learning resources, 11 tools, and 9 libraries - from various corners of our ecosystem that you may have missed!

We also got a new editor, so our release timings will hopefully improve in the future. :)
# Bevy Jam 3: Results 🐦

Speaking about news that should've been posted earlier: the BevyJam3 results were released a week ago!

πŸ₯‡ LinkSider by kuviman, daivy, shadow-crusherz

πŸ₯‰ Battle for Rattoria by jabuwu

The jam had a solid turnout with 353 participants, 78 submissions, and 2,158 ratings! A lot of the submissions have a web build so it's easy to try them out yourself.

# April Dailyart Sketches #1 The first bunch of my doodles for April: a big guy, an angry guy, and some improvised factory.
# April Dailyart Sketches #2

Oh, and here's the second bunch of my dailyart doodles for April: a jumping ferret, an indignant babushka, a cute hanging gekko, and some student walking around.

# RustyJam 3 πŸ¦€

Another Rusty Jam starts in a couple of days - May 21st!

It's a great chance to try out some new Rusty tech, form a team of like-minded rustaceans, and feel what a full cycle of making a game in Rust feels like in miniature!

This jam focuses more on using Rust than anything else. That means you aren't restricted on your design, music, or graphics, as long as you use Rust to make it!

The optional-to-use theme for the jam is going to be announced in the jam's Discord and pinned in the community section. While you're waiting for the theme, you can start looking for a team in the looking-for-team Discord channel. If you want solo though, that's fine too.

This Month in Rust GameDev for April 2023 is late again but it still brings a lot of interesting updates - about 16 games, 3 engines, 12 learning resources, 5 tools, and 11 libraries - from various corners of our ecosystem that you may have missed!
Oof nice release - Rust 1.70

Many things stabilized:
- OnceCell
- IsTerminal
- Arc, Rc::into_inner

These are a few immediately useful for me.

It's a good break from all the governance drama
