Godot is a popular open source engine for building 2D and 3D games. It is similar to Unity in many ways, but is lightweight (35Mb) and provides it's own custom scripting language called GDScript.

However, Godot weighs in at just 35 megabytes, while providing a full feature developer experience that's approachable to beginners.
Game code can be written in c, sharp c plus plus or a purpose built language called GDScript.
It feels like a cross between TypeScript and Python, and dramatically reduces the amount of complexity and boilerplate when coding game scripts.
To create a game, you start with a scene, which itself contains a tree of nodes.
Nodes are like building blocks that can be assigned as the child of another node to control the appearance and behavior of objects in the scene.
Any node can have a script attached to it, allowing you to write code that updates the object for every frame in the game loop.
You can then save the scene to disk and use it within other scenes.
When your awesome game is complete, it can be exported with day single click to desktop, web, and mobile platforms, or to consoles like Nintendo Switch, PS 4, and Xbox via third party providers.
2 build your own game right now, download it, and create a new project.
Start with a new 3 d scene, then add a static body node to it, which is ideal for things like walls and floors.
On its 7, it's invisible, but we can change that by adding a collision shape node as a child.
Choose a shape type on the right side, then modify its actual size by and editing the values directly, or by dragging the gizmo with the mouse.
It's still just a wireframe, but we can bring it to life by also adding a mesh instance node.
A mesh is a collection of triangles that make 3 d shapes look realistic.
We can also make the scene look more realistic by adding a directional light to it, which will cast shadows off of other 3 d objects.
Checks.
Now to add a player to the game, we'll create another scene, this time with a kinematic body as the root, which is ideal for objects that you move around with a controller.
Give it Legend Shape and Mesh, then open up the project settings and go to input map.
From here, we can create labels like move left and move right, and then mapped those labels to multiple different controls like keys on a keyboard or buttons on a joypad.
And now we can write some code by attaching a script to the root object that moves the player when these puts or press.
Create variables with the var keyword with an optional type annotation and export them to make them public in the editor.
Now override the process or physics process function to calculate a new position for the player based on the inputs pressed by the user.
Now go back to the main scene and add the player scene as a node.
Also add a camera for end user's point of view, click play, and you now have the beginning of a real video game.

The transcript discusses the use of Godot, a game engine that allows players to create high quality games in a single source. It provides an editor that allows them to visualize, program, and build game objects, and allows them to save and export their game files. They can also create a new scene, create a new 3 d model, and add a player to their game. The process involves creating a scene, selecting labels, and mapping them to different controls. The game is finished in 100 seconds.
Godot in 100 Seconds
Godot, a free and open source game engine capable of building high quality 2 d and 3 d games. It was created in 2000 7 in Argentina, and open sourced in 2014. Like Unity, it provides an editor that allows you to create, visualize, and program the behavior of game objects. X. However, Godot weighs in at just 35 megabytes, while providing a full feature developer experience that's approachable to beginners. Game code can be written in c, sharp c plus plus or a purpose built language called GDScript. It feels like a cross between TypeScript and Python, and dramatically reduces the amount of complexity and boilerplate when coding game scripts. To create a game, you start with a scene, which itself contains a tree of nodes. Nodes are like building blocks that can be assigned as the child of another node to control the appearance and behavior of objects in the scene. Any node can have a script attached to it, allowing you to write code that updates the object for every frame in the game loop. You can then save the scene to disk and use it within other scenes. When your awesome game is complete, it can be exported with day single click to desktop, web, and mobile platforms, or to consoles like Nintendo Switch, PS 4, and Xbox via third party providers. 2 build your own game right now, download it, and create a new project. Start with a new 3 d scene, then add a static body node to it, which is ideal for things like walls and floors. On its 7, it's invisible, but we can change that by adding a collision shape node as a child. Choose a shape type on the right side, then modify its actual size by and editing the values directly, or by dragging the gizmo with the mouse. It's still just a wireframe, but we can bring it to life by also adding a mesh instance node. A mesh is a collection of triangles that make 3 d shapes look realistic. We can also make the scene look more realistic by adding a directional light to it, which will cast shadows off of other 3 d objects. Checks. Now to add a player to the game, we'll create another scene, this time with a kinematic body as the root, which is ideal for objects that you move around with a controller. Give it Legend Shape and Mesh, then open up the project settings and go to input map. From here, we can create labels like move left and move right, and then mapped those labels to multiple different controls like keys on a keyboard or buttons on a joypad. And now we can write some code by attaching a script to the root object that moves the player when these puts or press. Create variables with the var keyword with an optional type annotation and export them to make them public in the editor. Now override the process or physics process function to calculate a new position for the player based on the inputs pressed by the user. Now go back to the main scene and add the player scene as a node. Also add a camera for end user's point of view, click play, and you now have the beginning of a real video game.

The transcript discusses the use of Godot, a game engine that allows players to create high quality games in a single source. It provides an editor that allows them to visualize, program, and build game objects, and allows them to save and export their game files. They can also create a new scene, create a new 3 d model, and add a player to their game. The process involves creating a scene, selecting labels, and mapping them to different controls. The game is finished in 100 seconds.
