What is it?

This repository collects official demonstration projects for Godot Engine, the open source 2D and 3D game engine. Each folder containing a project.godot file is a standalone demo that can be opened directly in the Godot editor, and the whole set can be imported at once through the project manager's Scan function.

The demos are organized by Godot version. The master branch targets the upcoming 4.x development line, a 3.x branch targets the 3.x line, and older branches match earlier stable releases. Most demos are also exported to GitHub Pages so they can be tried in a browser, though performance there is lower than running the editor natively.

The demos are useful as learning references for Godot features and as starting templates for new games. They are distributed under the MIT license.

  • 04Most demos can be played in a browser via GitHub Pages.
  • 05Projects can be imported in bulk through the Godot project manager.

Use cases

  • Learning how specific Godot features and nodes are used in practice.
  • Starting a new game from a working project as a template.
  • Testing which Godot version a demo's code is compatible with by switching branches.
