SpaceBirds
My goal was to play around with Godot engine, I've used version 2.1.4. Never used it before or read any documentation about it upfront.
Unfortunately, I had much less time than originally planned; created in aprox. 9 hours.
In the end, I've struck some inefficiency in Godot that sometimes make the game tearing a lot;
could not get around it (everything is pooled, no GC). Partially, I think the mouse mode is
to blame... just a gist.
UPDATE: I've fixed the tearing, of course, Godot is not to blame ... or only partially ... GDScript is not as fast as I thought ... about 40k simple math operations is too much.
Try to be calm and contemplative, almost meditation-like, when you play the game.
I hope you enjoy it.
Oh, if your mouse cursor won't disappear, just left-mouse-click once ... some Godot quirk :(
