gdquest-demos/godot-3-demos
Dozens of free and open source demos for the Godot game engine, version 3. Head to the link below for newer demos for Godot 4+
A collection of GDScript demo projects from GDQuest's Godot 3 tutorial series, covering 2D movement patterns, camera rigs, pathfinding, FSMs, and UI. Aimed at developers learning Godot 3 who want working reference code alongside the YouTube tutorials. The repo itself is clear that Godot 4 demos live elsewhere.
Each demo is self-contained — you can open a single folder in Godot without pulling in unrelated scenes. The start/end split on some demos is genuinely useful for following along rather than just copying a final answer. Coverage hits the topics newcomers actually get stuck on: grid movement, A* pathfinding, finite state machines, camera room transitions. Nearly 1000 forks suggests the code has been read and used, not just starred.
Frozen at Godot 3 since June 2023 — GDScript 2.0 and Godot 4's breaking changes mean none of this runs out of the box on a current engine. The README lists only a subset of what's actually in the repo; the 2017/ and 2018/ folder split with no master index makes it annoying to figure out what exists. No tests, no CI beyond a dusty .travis.yml, and the demos don't document which Godot 3.x minor version they were last verified against.
