Prerequisites (description)

The aim of this subject is to familiarize the student with the process of creating two-dimensional games using a ready-made game engine. Godot is used as the ready-made engine in the classes. It is a free engine that can be used for any purpose without any financial commitments. It is distributed with open-source code.
