## Godot Engine
|
|
|
|
Homepage: https://godotengine.org
|
|
|
|
#### 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 in one click to a number of platforms, including
|
|
the major desktop platforms (Linux, Mac OSX, Windows) as well as mobile
|
|
(Android, iOS) and web-based (HTML5) platforms.
|
|
|
|
#### 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

### Community and contributing
|
|
|
|
Godot is not only an engine but an ever-growing community of users and engine
|
|
developers. The main community channels are listed [on the homepage](https://godotengine.org/community).
