What’s the largest or most impressive game shipped that uses the Bevy engine? (Open or closed source)
I like asking this because while a whole bunch of smaller games do a great job showing examples of how to use the engine, larger games practically demonstrate the scalability of the engine.
The largest "game" that I'm aware of is a piece of closed source CAD software [0].
They've been thrilled with the performance and ergonomics of the code, although they're relying on egui [1] for the UI.
As to scale, they crunch absolutely absurd amounts of data, seem to have an impressive amount of functionality, and are regularly hiring new folks from the community onto their team.
As a disclaimer: Bevy is still very new, our apis are still in flux and incomplete, and we actually recommend that people don't use Bevy for "serious projects" yet in our official docs. Don't expect to see Elden Ring equivalents in Bevy for a long time. People shouldn't be staking their livelihoods on Bevy yet (although some still do because they see our value and potential ... there are a surprising number of paid Bevy jobs out there).
There are very few "complete games / apps" built in Bevy. We're still very much in the "enthusiast / jammer" phase, but we're dangerously close to working our way out of that.
To my knowledge there are only a couple of "released" full games / apps:
Molecoole was very recently the first Bevy game released on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1792170/Molecoole/
Noumenal is a really cool "constructive solid geometry" Bevy-based 3D modeler on the iOS app store: https://noumenal.app/
