Hello everyone, welcome to the #59 issue of This Week in Godot, Godot is a popular Free and Open Source game development engine and toolset. And this is a weekly overview of what happened the past week in the Godot engine and its community right in your email.

Please, if you have any recommendations or, any idea you can send me an email to albizures@vk.com or, even better, you can open a PR in GitHub.
