1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,020
To get started you'll need to download

2
00:00:02,050 --> 00:00:05,140
and extract the project files
and install Godot.

3
00:00:05,170 --> 00:00:09,457
You'll see detailed instructions
on how to do that below the video.

4
00:00:09,770 --> 00:00:12,743
Once you're set up,
you want to open Godot.

5
00:00:13,330 --> 00:00:16,860
This will open the project list
or project launcher.

6
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:21,756
In there, you can import projects by
clicking the Import button on the right,

7
00:00:21,757 --> 00:00:22,771
so click that

8
00:00:22,900 --> 00:00:26,714
and this expects a path
to the project directory.

9
00:00:27,414 --> 00:00:31,460
I'm going to go to the place
I extracted the project.

10
00:00:31,543 --> 00:00:33,543
It's called godot-game-to-assemble

11
00:00:33,743 --> 00:00:36,543
and I'm going to copy
its path on my system.

12
00:00:36,730 --> 00:00:39,400
It goes with right-click, Copy,

13
00:00:39,857 --> 00:00:43,928
and then I can paste
the path with Ctrl+v in there

14
00:00:43,929 --> 00:00:46,228
and click the Import & Edit button.

15
00:00:46,229 --> 00:00:49,971
You'll only be able to do that
if your path is correct.

16
00:00:50,530 --> 00:00:52,998
With that, this opens Godot

17
00:00:52,999 --> 00:00:57,500
and opens the project that appears
to be mostly empty right now.

18
00:00:57,570 --> 00:00:59,900
It opens the main scene.

19
00:00:59,930 --> 00:01:06,400
A scene is a place in which we work
and that we can run in the Godot engine.

20
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,971
This scene is composed of the things
you see in the top left,

21
00:01:10,972 --> 00:01:12,100
in the Scene dock.

22
00:01:12,429 --> 00:01:16,686
Those building blocks
are called nodes in this case.

23
00:01:16,829 --> 00:01:18,100
We prepared a couple

24
00:01:18,101 --> 00:01:22,714
just to ensure that we have everything
we need to assemble our game.

25
00:01:23,029 --> 00:01:26,210
In the bottom left,
you will find the file system.

26
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:31,452
This is a dock that lists
all the files in our project.

27
00:01:31,743 --> 00:01:35,540
And on the right side,
you will find the Inspector.

28
00:01:35,570 --> 00:01:39,614
This changes when we click
on different nodes on the left

29
00:01:39,615 --> 00:01:42,500
and shows their settings if you want.

30
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,256
At the top, you can find some workspaces.

31
00:01:46,257 --> 00:01:49,257
We'll be working in
the 2D workspace right now,

32
00:01:49,586 --> 00:01:51,929
but later we'll jump to the script one.

33
00:01:52,257 --> 00:01:54,319
This is a very brief tour.

34
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:59,460
We'll learn a lot more about
the Godot interface in upcoming projects.

35
00:01:59,490 --> 00:02:02,129
For now, we want to focus
on assembling our game.

36
00:02:02,386 --> 00:02:06,180
To get started, we'll add
the player to our game.

37
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:10,400
The way we can do that is using
the file system dock in the bottom left.

38
00:02:10,936 --> 00:02:15,356
Click the Search files bar
to search for the player scene file

39
00:02:15,357 --> 00:02:16,729
and type player.

40
00:02:17,329 --> 00:02:21,770
To add it, you need to ensure
that you selected the main node here.

41
00:02:21,771 --> 00:02:24,943
You can click a node
in the scene dock to select it.

42
00:02:25,071 --> 00:02:26,886
Main should be highlighted.

43
00:02:27,250 --> 00:02:32,614
Then, click and drag
the Player.tscn file onto the view.

44
00:02:33,530 --> 00:02:37,639
This is going to create what
we call an instance of the scene.

45
00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:40,614
It's a reproduction of it, if you want.

46
00:02:41,100 --> 00:02:44,700
You can click the cross next to the player
to clean up the search

47
00:02:44,701 --> 00:02:47,314
and fold the player directory.

48
00:02:47,500 --> 00:02:49,456
Now you can press F5

49
00:02:49,457 --> 00:02:54,856
or click the Play button
in the top right of the project to play

50
00:02:54,857 --> 00:02:57,756
and see that you can now
control the character's hands.

51
00:02:57,757 --> 00:03:00,300
You can click to fire bullets

52
00:03:00,301 --> 00:03:05,129
and you can press W-A-S-D
to move the character.

53
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,186
We don't see it moving
because we lack an environment,

54
00:03:08,187 --> 00:03:10,086
but we're going to add that next.

55
00:03:10,271 --> 00:03:13,843
Press F8 to stop playing the game.
