Godot is a lightweight, open-source game engine that is easy to learn and use, making it ideal for beginners and indie developers.
The GDScript programming language is intuitive and similar to Python, allowing for quick development and iteration of games.
The engine has a strong community and good documentation, providing ample resources for users to learn and troubleshoot.

Some users find the node system confusing and can struggle with the learning curve, especially if they lack coding experience.
The Steam version of Godot has been reported to have bugs and limitations, leading some to recommend using the standalone version instead.
While Godot excels in 2D game development, it has limited 3D capabilities compared to larger engines like Unity and Unreal.
