I wanted to get into Flutter but it seems like there are some bugs that are either unfixable or that they have actively decided not to fix. I didn't want to end up wasting my time building on such a foundation, but it's definitely nice for certain projects that fit within the supported functionality.

This was a great blog post. I love Rust and Bevy, but I can definitely see why you made the switch.
The primary issue with your decision to use Rust/Bevy, for me, was that you were taking on the task of getting others to work in a difficult language for novice developers. I would never suggest Rust as someone's first language, coupling that with a regularly-changing library like Bevy.
I would love to know what the pros and cons were between Unity and Godot. If you were going to switch to C# anyway, Godot seems like the next logic choice to me, so I'm curious about what your team's evaluation was for that engine.

The main one that jumped out to me was a scroll issue on iOS when using multiple fingers. I just looked it up to share a link and it may be fixed? It's the mentality of "Eh, we might fix it one day" that is the bulk of why I didn't stick with Flutter. A bug this annoying lingering for as long as it did said volumes to me.
