Don't waste your weekend! Go grab some #GodotEngine demo projects from GDquest team to learn Godot:

#AntiAliasing explained, but the role of DLSS and FSR is described poorly.

AI upscale isn't purely the Anti-Aliasing technique.

Finally, #GodotEngine 3.5 is now a Stable release! It has so many updates and fixes, some of them were backported from G4.

New NavigationServer with obstacle avoidance; improved tweening with SceneTreeTween; Time singleton; Label3D and TextMesh nodes; unique node names for easy access; flow containers; 3D physics interpolation; asynchronous shader compilation and caching; OccluderShapePolygon; material overlays; Android editor port; improved VCS features; and more!

#CSGO recreated with #Source2

Godot Engine developers have founded a commercial company W4 to support the non-profit section. It also means that they can add non-opensource components and make custom builds.
