Godot Engine – Multi-platform 2D and 3D game engine
2D and 3D cross-platform game engine
Godot Engine is a feature-packed, cross-platform
game engine to create 2D and 3D games from a unified interface. It provides a
comprehensive set of common tools, so that users can focus on making games
without having to reinvent the wheel. Games can be exported with one click to a
number of platforms, including the major desktop platforms (Linux, macOS,
Windows), mobile platforms (Android, iOS), as well as Web-based platforms
(HTML5) and consoles.
Free, open source and community-driven
Godot is completely free and open source under the very permissive MIT license.
No strings attached, no royalties, nothing. The users' games are theirs, down
to the last line of engine code. Godot's development is fully independent and
community-driven, empowering users to help shape their engine to match their
expectations. It is supported by the Software Freedom Conservancy
not-for-profit.
Before being open sourced in February 2014,
Godot had been developed by Juan Linietsky and Ariel Manzur (both still maintaining the project) for several years as an in-house engine, used to publish several work-for-hire titles.
