## What it is
A collection of dozens of free and open-source demo projects for the Godot 3 game engine, written in GDScript by GDQuest. Each demo accompanies a YouTube tutorial and covers topics like 2D pathfinding, finite state machines, camera rigs, and UI design.

## Use cases
- learn godot 3 with example projects
- see how to implement a finite state machine in gdscript
- reference code for 2d grid-based movement
- learn astar pathfinding in godot
- build a 2d game ui with godot containers
- follow along with godot video tutorials

## When to choose
- you are learning Godot 3 and want runnable example code
- you need a reference implementation for a specific 2D game mechanic
- you follow GDQuest tutorials and want the start/end project files

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project with Godot 4 (use GDQuest's Godot 4 demos instead)
- you need a production-ready game framework or engine module
- you want complete polished games rather than focused demo scenes

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: game-engine, simulation, graphics
- domain: tutorials, education
- platform: cross-platform, game-engine
- tags: godot, gdscript, demos, 2d-games, example-projects, godot-3, game-development
