Why I Switched to Godot

By Anis Timur Shayk | November 20, 2024

I've tried Unity, I've played around with Unreal, but Godot just made sense. Its open-source nature, tiny install size, and sheer elegance in scene architecture pulled me in fast. Plus, Unity's little fiasco that broke the community's trust? Yikes...

Here's Why It Clicked

• 🚀 Lightweight & fast: No bloated project structures.
• 🧠 GDScript feels like Python: Less syntax pain, more creativity.
• 🔧 Scene system = clean hierarchy: Truly modular development.
• 🌍 Community vibes: People build out of love, not hype.

Sure, it has quirks. The 3D engine isn't as polished as Unity's, and the documentation can be sparse. But the freedom it gives you to prototype and blend 2D/3D is unmatched.
