# Godot

Reference project

Complete 2D/3D game engine with a visual editor, scenes, nodes and GDScript or C\# gameplay.

## Why we recommend it

Choose Godot when designers and programmers need one environment for levels, animation, UI and gameplay. A small scene-based prototype can validate the interaction before you expand the content pipeline.

## When to choose it

- Independent desktop games, 2D adventures and 3D prototypes.
- A team that wants editable scenes and an open engine it can extend.

## What to consider

- This repository is the engine source. Creating your game normally starts with the editor and a separate game project; cloning the engine does not create that project.
- Check export support for your exact engine version, scripting language and target. Console distribution, SDKs and external assets have separate requirements.

## Start with this project

Use the official stable editor and matching export templates. Create a separate project, choose GDScript or the .NET edition for C\#, then build one scene with input, collision and a restart. Follow the source-build guide only when modifying the engine.
