Godot Engine: Open Source Graphics Engine Shows Third Person Shooter Demo

Godot Engine

The world of video games on GNU/Linux has grown exponentially in recent years. We've gone from having only a few very simple and basic games to seeing thousands of titles for Linux, some of them AAA games—the big-name titles that gamers love. This burgeoning industry and interest in the world of digital entertainment is also driving the rapid improvement of other projects, such as OpenGL, Vulkan, and certain libraries.

Furthermore, it's nothing new to say that open-source graphics engines exist. We've already seen announcements about open-source graphics engines and video games based on them that support Linux. Well, today we add another one to the list and introduce you to Godot Engine . The project is open-source and general-purpose, although they've recently shown a demo of a third-person shooter title created with it. If you want to learn more about this project or are simply interested in starting to use it as a developer for a project you have in mind, you can find everything about it on the official website . As you'll see in the website's downloads section, it's available for multiple platforms, such as Windows, macOS, and of course, Linux . You'll also find both 32-bit and 64-bit packages and other downloadable resources for C# support (Mono Version), etc., as well as information about the community that develops it, and plenty of material to discover and use the Godot Engine…

Currently available in several languages, under MIT license, it allows the development of both 2D and 3D video games.


UPDATE :

By the way, if you tried to access Wikipedia to find information about this or another project, say in passing that unfortunately the Wiki had closed in protest of the new copyright law that is intended to be approved today in the European Parliament and that could put an end to the content of Wikipedia, and many other sites… Fortunately, the European Union has backed off from the mobilization of European Internet users !!
