About Godot
Godot was created in 2007 by Juan Linietsky and Ariel Manzur. It was initially developed as an in-house engine for several Latin American game development studios. The engine was later released as open-source software under the MIT License in 2014 to provide a free, community-driven alternative to other game engines.
Godot's strengths include its open-source nature, ease of use, lightweight footprint, and strong support for both 2D and 3D game development. Its weaknesses involve less mature 3D capabilities compared to leading engines and a smaller community. Competitors include Unity, Unreal Engine, and CryEngine.
