The MonoGame C# game development framework, the spiritual successor to Microsoft’s XNA framework, just received a huge boost in the form of a large donation and ongoing financial support. The donation is from ConcernedApe, the creator of the indie smash hit Stardew Valley.
Details were announced on the MonoGame twitter account:
This is the second large donation to the MonoGame Foundation. Back in 2023 in the wake of the Unity run-time fiasco Re-Logic (the creators of Terraria) donated $100K to the newly formed MonoGame Foundation (in addition to donations to Godot and FNA).
