That's an excellent article - it's great when people share not only their victories, but mistakes, and what they learned from them.
That said regarding both rapid gameplay mechanic iteration and modding - would that not generally be solved via a scripting language on top of the core engine? Or is Rust + Bevy not supposed to be engine-level development, and actually supposed to solve the gameplay development use-case too? This is very much not my area of expertise, I'm just genuinely curious.
It does solve the gameplay development use case too. Bevy encourages using lots of small 'systems' to build out logic. These are functions that can spawn entities or query for entities in the game world and modify them and there's also a way to schedule when these systems should run.
I don't think Bevy has a built-in way to integrate with other languages like Godot does, it's probably too early in the project's life for that to be on the roadmap.
