After 7 months of development, the release of the free game engine Godot 3.3 has been published, suitable for creating 2D and 3D games. The engine supports an easy-to-learn language for game logic tasks, a graphical environment for game design, a one-click game deployment system, extensive animation capabilities, and physical simulation processes, an integrated debugger, and a performance bottleneck detection system. The code for the game engine, game design environment, and associated development tools (physical engine, sound server, 2D\/3D rendering backends, etc.) is distributed under the MIT license. <\/p>\n

The engine's source code was opened in 2014 by OKAM Studio, after ten years of development of a proprietary professional-level product used to create and publish many games for PC, consoles, and mobile devices. The engine supports all popular desktop and mobile platforms (Linux, Windows, macOS, Wii, Nintendo 3DS, PlayStation 3, PS Vita, Android, iOS, BBX), as well as game development for the Web. Ready-to-run binary builds are available for Linux, Windows, and macOS. <\/p>\n

A new rendering backend based on the Vulkan graphics API is being developed in a separate branch, which will be offered in the next release Godot 4.0, instead of the currently offered OpenGL ES 3.0 and OpenGL 3.3 rendering backends (support for OpenGL ES and OpenGL will be maintained by ensuring the old OpenGL ES 2.0\/OpenGL 2.1 backend works on the new Vulkan-based rendering architecture). Transitioning from Godot 3.x to Godot 4.0 will require reworking applications due to API compatibility issues, but a long support cycle will be provided for the Godot 3.x branch, the duration of which will depend on user demand for the strict API. <\/p>\n

The Godot 3.3 branch is fully compatible with Godot 3.2 and continues the development of stable engine releases, which will be supported for a long period. Initially, an update 3.2.4 was planned instead of Godot 3.3, but users perceived the 3.2.x versions as corrective, despite the introduction of new features from the 4.0 branch, so the project transitioned to a classic semantic versioning scheme. Specifically, the third digit update will now indicate the presence of only fixes, the second \u2014 the inclusion of new functionality, and the first \u2014 the presence of compatibility-affecting changes. The 3.x.x branch will be supported alongside the 4.x.x branch until Godot 4.x is fully stabilized and adapted for all current hardware. <\/p>\n

Godot 3.3 is notable for the addition of the following innovations: <\/p>\n
