![]() ![]() Godot reached version 1.0 on 15 December 2014, marking the first stable release and the addition of lightmapping, navmesh support, and more shaders. In February 2014, the source code for Godot was released to the public on GitHub under the MIT License. ![]() The name "Godot" was chosen due to its relation to Samuel Beckett's play Waiting for Godot, as it represents the never-ending wish of adding new features in the engine, which would get it closer to an exhaustive product, but never will. Godot is a game engine that was started by Juan 'reduz' Linietsky and Ariel 'punto' Manzur in 2007. Screenshot of development build of Godot 4.0 running using Vulkan (dev build, May 10, 2021) The engine uses Bullet for 3D physics simulation. Almost any variable defined or created on a game entity can be animated. Godot contains an animation system with a GUI for skeletal animation, blending, animation trees, morphing, and real-time cutscenes. It is also possible to mix 2D and 3D using a 'viewport node'. The 2D engine supports features such as lights, shadows, shaders, tile sets, parallax scrolling, polygons, animations, physics, and particles. Godot also includes a separate 2D graphics engine that can operate independently of the 3D engine. Alternatively, they can be created by manipulating nodes in a visual editor. Shaders can be used for materials and post-processing. A simplified shader language, similar to GLSL, is also incorporated. The engine supports normal mapping, specularity, dynamic shadows using shadow maps, baked and dynamic global illumination, and full-screen post-processing effects like bloom, depth of field, high-dynamic-range rendering, and gamma correction. Vulkan is supported starting version 4.0 and also includes the possibility of support for Metal using MoltenVK. Godot's graphics engine uses OpenGL ES 3.0 for all supported platforms otherwise, OpenGL ES 2.0 is used.

The web platform uses 32-bit WebAssembly. įor CPU architectures, Godot officially supports x86 on all desktop platforms (both 32-bit and 64-bit where available) and has official ARM support on macOS, mobile platforms, and standalone Oculus platforms (both 32-bit and 64-bit where available). However, it is still possible to port games to consoles thanks to services provided by third-party companies. While the Godot engine can be run on consoles, most popular consoles are not officially supported since they do not allow their platform-specific code to be published under an open-source license.
