Sure, I get what you are saying, and yes, perhaps we should also include screenshots. I'll see what we can do.

But keep in mind that the showcase page isn't there to sell the games. It is there to show that professional games have been released using Defold. And to show to that you can be productive and release games when you use Defold. Screenshots or illustrations does not matter in this case. Neither says anything about the quality of the engine. And we opted for illustrations as that works better on a showcase page.

I get your position, but I also expected that "showcase" was going to be showcasing your engine or at least features of your engine.

This is a very good point! Looking at our top menu items again I can see how it looks for a new visitor.

* Product (https://defold.com/product/) lists engine features. This should probably be renamed Features.

* Showcase (https://defold.com/showcase/) shows games made with Defold. It is not so much a showcase for specific engine features but rather a showcase of different kinds of games that has been made with Defold. Perhaps we should rename it to Games.

As a side-note regarding games: We will start posting developer case-studies in a few weeks. These case-studies will show both the games and the features of the engine as well as clever solutions to problems and how Defold has helped the creators while developing their games.
