The website is back! Please wait a bit for the forums, though.

Currently, the Solarus website is down because the OVH building where it was hosted has burnt. We'll keep you informed when it's back to normal.

Here's a recap about what happened to Solarus in 2020 and what's next!

Check out this amazing overhaul of the dialog system of Solarus: https://www.solarus-games.org/en/development/resource-packs/visual-novel-system
Kudos to the authors!

The engine and editor remain GPL. Only the logo changes its license.

With the agreement of its authors, the Solarus logo (code, resources) is now MIT/CC-BY, so you can use it in a closed-source Solarus quest.
