Godot Game Engine - how to start?
summary
A duo uses Godot to build a working web-ready mini “duck shooter” during the demo: assets from Kenny are tiled into a 2D scene, collisions use Area2D shapes, input handlers are connected to a simple GDScript that toggles a shot sprite, movement is done with AnimationPlayer, and the project targets the compatibility renderer for easy WebGL export. Examples note Doom Keeper’s ~500k sales and ~50,000 Godot-tagged games on itch.io to show real-world viability.
