a quick demo on how to install Godot on Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn

Godot is a fully featured, open source, MIT licensed, feature packed, multi-platform 2D and 3D game engine. It focuses on having great tools, and a visual oriented workflow that can export to PC, Mobile and Web platforms with no hassle. The editor, language and APIs are feature rich, yet simple to learn, allowing you to become productive in a matter of hours.

Scripting
Godot has its own scripting language called GDScript, which is similar to Python language. It's a high level, dynamically typed programming language.

It also has a built-in editor with auto indenter, syntax highlighting, code completion and debugger that supports breakpoints and stepping.

The graphics engine uses OpenGL ES 2 for all supported platforms, an upgrade to OpenGL ES 3.0 is in the roadmap. The engine supports transparency, normal mapping, specularity, dynamic shadows using shadow maps and full-screen post-processing effects like fxaa, bloom, dof, hdr, gamma correction and fog.

It supports 2D out of the box with its own tab in the editor. It includes UI, sprites, animation, physics, particles and more. It's also possible to mix 2D with 3D or 3D with 2D using viewport node.

Godot supports deployment to multiple platforms. Within a project, developers have control over delivery to mobiles, web, desktops, and consoles. Godot also allows specification of texture compression and resolution settings for each platform the game supports.

Currently supported platforms include Windows, OS X, Linux, Android, iOS, BlackBerry 10, HTML5, flash, NaCl, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita and 3DS.

There is an upcoming support for Windows Phone 8.
