Note that you can use both GDScript and C# in the same project, and they are interoperable. So you can absolutely code some systems in C#, some in GDScript. Though of course, this is something we can't recommend to beginners as you need to deal with two languages, but it might be interesting to professionals. One consideration I did not include in the video is performance because beginners, whom I think is the main target for this question, can have misconceptions about performance. C# can be quite a bit faster than GDScript code, but it depends on the context. If most of your code calls functions built into Godot, the difference is very limited because most of the code you run comes from the Godot engine. The difference gets big for 100% custom systems that you code from scratch in your game. Godot provides many features out of the box so many games never need such custom systems. We're talking about things built from scratch, especially things where you use many loops like procedural content generation algorithms. In those cases, you may need a language faster than GDScript, and you can use C#, or a lower-level option like C++. At GDQuest, we chose to use GDScript exclusively for gameplay code and C++ if we need a lot more performance. That's because we can directly reference the engine's source code and tweak it. We also generally code the system once in C++, recompile the engine, and then we keep the very fast iteration times in production with GDScript. But this isn't an option for everyone: you need to know C++, and while C# is about as feature-full, the learning resources for C++ are unfortunately often less accessible than for C#. So if you find GDScript too slow for your game, but you don't want to use two different languages, C# is a convenient option. I would also recommend it in this specific case. Just don't forget the tradeoffs: build and iteration times will become slower than with GDScript.

If a person begins development with the standard version of Godot, using GDScript, and 3 years later they realize some of their systems may benefit from being written in C#, is it possible to simply load the same project within the Mono version? Will migrating like this break anything or is a painless transition? I can only assume that it's impossible to go back to the standard version once you've implemented anything with C#.

@@kovitikus Yes absolutely, you can open a project in the Mono edition of Godot anytime. And vice-versa, if your project created in the Godot mono edition has no C#, it should run no problem in Godot standard.

The main people who ask this question may be beginners *to Godot*, but they are not necessarily beginners to game development or programming. That's even more true now that so many are switching from Unity (and C#) to Godot. Switching to Godot necessarily entails decisions like what language to use, and performance is a very important consideration, depending on what kinds of applications you'll be developing. Another consideration that I didn't hear mentioned in this video is portability to target platforms. If I'm going to spend a lot of time developing an app, but then it can't run on the web platform because I wrote it in C#, it's important to know that in advance.

I've been teaching Game Design to high school students for 2 years. The previous teacher used Unity so I followed in their footsteps. I thought, well it's an industry standard tool, C# is more known etc, but in the end, most of my students are not actually going to work in the industry. I'm really thinking of using Godot and your tutorials next school year. Unity is such a resource hog and runs slow on our computers. Having GD Script more tightly integrated into the engine is a HUGE welcome too. I think what I most need to do with my students is to expose them to the ideas of game development and teach them how to make prototypes, and then if they go on to college and study it more, they could choose to learn Unity et al. In the end, my class is an elective, and I do get students who have no interest in writing code, and the hurdles Unity puts in front of us really breaks some of those kids, then they check out. I think Godot would work better and keep more students engaged and help them be more successful on their projects.

If they spend 10-20% of their class time waiting for Unity on slow hardware, they're wasting what little time they get to find what they enjoy. If Godot saves them that time, they get to spend more time learning to code and making things, and therefore more time to determine if this is something they actually enjoy or not. Everything they'd learn from a high school class (variables, arrays, functions, debugging, development patterns, etc) will still be useful if they choose to continue game development in college or on their own, regardless of whether that college uses Unity or Unreal. As for whether or not it's realistic to believe not all high school students would continue to pursue game development: The average game development job pays less than software development jobs in more "boring" industries, often has far more demanding hours, and only around 5% of all programming jobs are in the games industry. I imagine most of them would end up elsewhere at some point in their careers, and stick to game development in their free time as a hobby.

For me, we use GDScript for prototyping, so that the testing team and the gameplay programming team could have quick fixes and improvements to the game. However, we use C# for production code, and we always use C# for everything that is related to networking. Type hinting is a welcome addition to GDScript, but for C# is a primary function. This way most bugs could be eliminated even without testing.

GDScript doesn't just have type hints. It's not like Python: the language is gradually typed. In Godot 3, the type checker lacks some features, but thankfully in Godot 4, you can type collections, e.g., Array[Vector2] or Dictionary[Vector2, Node2D].

I would expand this to say that the C# knowledge would transfer better to any programming/technical field, not just game development. C# is a general-purpose language used widely in industry, while GDScript is obviously exclusive to Godot. While it is obviously influenced heavily by Python, the generic "programming experience" learned from C# is more applicable to other languages, whereas Python (GDScript) has a very unique syntax and way of doing things that can only really be applied within that language, and doesn't translate well into other languages. If one already knows one language and not the other, then by all means I would recommend using the one you are familiar with, but if choosing to learn one for the sake game development and/or interest in programming, C# is indeed the far wiser option.

The thing is, there aren't so many arguments in favor of C# for the people whom this video is for, to me (people who can't decide themselves). There's one C# language feature in particular that can be really nice, interfaces, as it gives you quite a lot of flexibility in how you can structure your code. There's one argument that C# developers will give you that's the ecosystem, the fact you have big code libraries available, but it's more that if you're a C# developer, you might be used to working with those libraries. Just like a Python developer might be used to relying on Python libraries. Godot provides lots of things built-in so you rarely need said libraries. So yeah I don´t have too many arguments that don't have an immediate counter-argument. The big one is likely performance if you need it, and that's covered in the pinned comment because there again, I think it's a bit beyond the target audience for this question.

@@GDQuestQA As a person who uses C# myself for godot I would say my main argument for C# is actually reflection. It can make your life so much easier and coding so much more plesant. For example: * Easy to do stuff like adding two of the same objects together (eg. player stats / buffs), if you add new fields to the class no need to update your adding code. If you need flexibility you can use annotations to for example specify that something should be multiplied instead of added. * Want to create a list of all items or something in your game. Just inherit them all from the same base class then use reflection to resolve at runtime. No need to maintain a list. * I worked on one project that allowed replication of member variables in godot over the network simply by adding a single annotation to any member in a class. You could even replicate entire custom classes with a single annotation (this is open source MDFramework on github). * Great for making tools, I made a C# data object editor that relies on code annotations to create an editor for my game data. If I want to bind the value of a json string to a C# enum I just add a single annotation to my code and I constrain my editor to the value of that enum. Or I can constrain it to the output value of a static method with another annotation. (Also open source, on my github same user name as youtube) * For one of my projects where I had huge data classes of level data where I wanted to make small changes between levels I expanded on this idea by having my editor use reflection to get a list of all properties in my LevelInput class, then you could simply override any value in the editor. If you changed the LevelInput class and compiled the program the editor auto detected this and would rebuild this list for you automatically. No need to go maintain the data tool on changes. These are just the five first examples that pop into my head regarding reflection, there are actually so many more uses for it. But in short it saves you the trouble of mainting things (tools, lists of stuff, methods for combining, etc..) while you are developing. Also reflection is by nature easily reusable. And before anyone mentions it, yes reflection can be slow. But during game startup it is fine, caching can make it alright for occasional use and in the worst case you can replace your reflection code with explicit code before release once there are not so many changes anymore. During development it's fine to trade the speed for convenience.

Being a Linux and FOSS guy, I imagine you're comfortable compiling programs? If so, I'd recommend something like C++. You can even prototype in GDScript, and code generally translates pretty well to C++ when you hit a performance limitation. The C++ language is... definitely harder to use than C# due to memory management and terrible errors. But at the same time if you compile your own version of the engine and work on a game for a long time, using a C++ module, you won't suffer the frequent little compilation times you have with C# when testing your game. That's why I think it's worth trying out C++ for performance in Godot. Better even, if you have the budget or a good friend who knows C++, prototype your AI in GDScript and let them port that to C++ and provide the compiled engine. The biggest hurdle I've found with writing C++ is getting the memory management right when writing for performance, mostly due to really poor error reporting. When practicing writing data structures, I've had to ask an experienced C++ dev. to mentor me because I'd get an error in a method, but it was due to a line somewhere else and that line wouldn't get linter warnings or compiler errors.

it's basically python, that's widely used basically everywhere

I like both programming languages because Gdscript looks like Python and C# looks like Java

The C# is going to be very slow compared to most uses of C# because Godot runs against the metal, but C# runs in a managed runtime. That means constant context switches every time youneed to call C# (or call a C/Godot API from C# code). And context switches are crazy slow. There's no getting around this unless Godot reimplements how C# is called.

i like gdscript as much as i like python, or more, because it is type safe, if only it was a standalone language... n__n

GS script surely looks ugly and Pascal like. C# looks closer to C/C++ we all know and love. And you can copy-paste most code without change.

i start get into gamedev cuz i like to think about better game design for the game i have played game like valorant, apex legends and rocket leauge. Im closed with people who are into science stuffs like AI and computer software. I know they are closed to Python , so thats why i choose Godot engine cuz Gdscript is closed to Godot

DO NOT USE C#. It won't scale well. I wasted month because its integration is absolutely horrible. Since it runs in its sandbox, most feature ands up not working properly as it would with GDScript (which won't scale well either since it is badly optimized, even compared to C#'s runtime). They can't be extended as well, and since most classes are sealed, you won't be able to address issues yourself. You won't be able to use custom projects or class libraries, since godot only scans the game project for classes. Most things end up breaking in the editor, and custom resources ends up turning into empty objects without you noticing (once you save, you lose data. FUN!). tl;dr: DO. NOT. USE. C#. WiTH. GODOT.

godot is still lacks quality... can't even sync c# code properly... Yeah Unity has it's own problems... What godot is missing out is that there are tons of C# game devs out there. Time to decide godot.
