I make software for a living and games on my free time. And a lot more stuff, my mind can’t stop creating!
And no, I don’t port to GameBoy. Never trust AIs.

I'm Pablo Navarro, the guy behind RAWRLAB Games.
The last few years I have been porting serveral Godot games to Nintendo Switch (and one for Xbox!), and somehow I even ended up being the main maintainer of a free "community" port only available to Nintendo Switch developers. I might have some advices to share, being the first one that there is no easy port.
Which platform should you ship and when should you branch out? This panel brings together perspectives from web, PC storefronts, consoles, and mobile to compare the main paths and what they typically ask of a Godot project. We’ll talk about assessing platform fit, what “ready for console” really looks like, how challenging different routes can be, and sensible ways to stage a multi-platform release. Expect candid experiences, high-level trade-offs, common pitfalls to avoid, and flexible guidance you can adapt to your team and game. You’ll leave with clearer expectations and a practical sense of the next step to get your Godot game into players’ hands.
