Godot Game Engine Released Under MIT License

"Godot is a fully featured, open source, MIT licensed, game engine. It focuses on having great tools, and a visual oriented workflow that can deploy to PC, Mobile and Web platforms with no hassle. The editor, language and APIs are feature rich, yet simple to learn. Godot was born as an in-house engine, and was used to publish several work-for-hire commercial titles. With more than half a million lines of code, Godot is one of the most complex Open Source game engines at the moment, and one of the largest commitments to open source software in recent years. It allows developers to make games under Linux (and other unix variants), Windows and OSX." -- source: http://news.slashdot.org/story/14/02/10/2332205 Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Waikato, NZ http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ Ph. +64 (7) 858-5174

This is excellent news - I installed godot yestersay and have had a little play with it. Very unity3d like. Looking forward to getting back into game dev with it. On 11/02/2014 1:47 PM, "Peter Reutemann" <fracpete(a)waikato.ac.nz> wrote:

Would you be interested in a little show and tell of the Game Engine at one of our next WLUG meetings? Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Waikato, NZ http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ Ph. +64 (7) 858-5174

Yes sure - ill keep working with it and would happily share my experiences. I've used Unity3d for 2 years now so great to find something I can replace it with. Cheers, William On 12/02/2014 9:08 AM, "Peter Reutemann" <fracpete(a)waikato.ac.nz> wrote:

Cool! Would Monday, April 28th work for you? Then I can schedule a meeting on meetup.com. Here's what I have in mind for the topic of that meeting (feel free to tweak it): "William McKee is demoing the Godot Game Engine, released under the MIT license. Similar to the Unity3D in features, it provides tools to quickly create games under Linux, Mac OSX and Windows." Thanks.
