Hi I'm new on this forum,
I've been a silent lurker on this site for a few weeks, I found this site when looking for ways to program a fan mario game. I'm taking a programming course at college and am thinking if making a mario fan game would make a good final project.
I want to start small and just make a single level clone of the first game.
I've been looking into the tools that I could use and I kept seeing people here mentioning Game Maker Studio, I have a bit of an issue with that. I use a Linux computer and GMS won't run on that.
I looked up various game engines and among the best Linux compatible ones is Godot.
Does anyone here have experience with it?
Why is it that Game Maker Studio is popular here to use?
I think one of the reasons that I like Godot is because it's free and open source.
