Now we can move sprites in STOS we need to put things together to see how we can actually begin creating playable games. Along the way we will look at some more new features and concepts so you can understand more of how STOS works versus programming languages and game engines you might be used to. Avoid the Monster.

The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. Which game engine should I use to maximize ease of learning and compatibility, and manage hundreds of simple objects on-screen? and no WASM.)

This beta includes a few big changes which may interest a lot of users: Animated sprites, both 2D and 3D, now support options for more precise timing of individual frames ( GH-65609 ). More engine enums are now bound with BitField, making their usage more type-safe, especially in C# ( GH-71037 , GH-71045 , GH-71116 ).

A very requested feature for the 2D engine is the possibility to have 2D directional lights and shadows. x is that, several times, sprites are separated in many nodes in order to be animated or assembled. The 2D GPU particle system will support particle collisions against the whole scene via SDF. This has been added for 4.0

stable branch in January 2020 as a major update to our free and open source game engine. This drastically reduces drawcall-related bottlenecks and can give massive gains in specific scenarios (drawing lots of sprites, big TileMaps, text rendering). Top: 10,000 Sprites with a randomized modulate and position.

If you use and enjoy Godot, plan to use it, or want support the cause of having a mature, high quality free and open source game engine, then please consider becoming our patron. all rendering code was rewritten to use the more modern OpenGL ES 3.0 / OpenGL 3.3 Code can be less readable and difficult to refactor.
