Similar idea to godot 4.0, but taken in a completely different direction:
A 3.x [Godot Engine](https://godotengine.org) fork where I hack and slash and cause mayhem and destruction to all things good and godot.
- I'm planning to remove all (or almost all) engine modules that I don't use.
- I'm planning to remove all (or almost all) drivers (like for more obscure formats) that I don't use.
- I'm planning to simplify things as much as I can.
- I'll probably import some unfinished prs from godot's repo.
- This fork will have all modules thet I created and actually use.
- I'll also try to strip most features that I don't use and I think is not needed for my projects. (AssetLib, TileMap - I have terraman2D -, GridMap (I have Terraman, Voxelman), Gles3, Lightmaps, GIProbes, VisualScript, GDNative etc.)
- I might create simpler physics engine that can only do collision detection, stuff like this.
- I'll try to simplify things to get better compile times.
- Might even try to go full C.

It contains all of my currently in use engine modules. See the [changelog](https://github.com/Relintai/pandemonium_engine/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) for a more comprehensive list of changes.

### Binary downloads
Official binaries for the Godot editor and the export templates can be found
[on the homepage](https://godotengine.org/download).
I don't have anything (lik an official webpage) set up at the moment, but temporarily you can download binaries from the github actions tab [[here]](https://github.com/Relintai/pandemonium_engine/actions).
### Compiling from source
[See the official docs](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/development/compiling/)
Compiling is exactly the same as for Godot, so [See the official Godot docs](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/development/compiling/)
for compilation instructions for every supported platform.
