This book will show you how you can very quickly start using Godot and code in GDScript, a scripting language similar to Python. Although it may not be as powerful as Unity or Unreal yet, Godot offers a wide range of features for you to create your video games. More importantly, this game engine is both Open Source and lightweight which means that even if you have (or you are teaching with) computers with very low technical specification, you should still be able to use Godot, and teach or learn how to code while creating video games.
This book series entitled Godot From Zero to Proficiency allows you to play around with Godot’s core features, and essentially those that will make it possible to create interesting 3D and 2D games rapidly. After reading this book series, you should find it easier to use Godot and its core functionalities, including programming with GDScript.
This book series assumes no prior knowledge on the part of the reader, and it will get you started on Godot so that you quickly master all the wonderful features that this software provides by going through an easy learning curve. By completing each chapter, and by following step-by-step instructions, you will progressively improve your skills, become more proficient in Godot, and create a survival game using Godot’s core features in terms of programming (i.e., GDScript), game design, and drag and drop features.
