Is Godot good for 2D games?

Image result for Create a Complete 2D Survivors Style Game in Godot 4
Whilst Godot is still used for mostly creating 2D and 3D mobile games, more and more developers are beginning to use it to create complex games. Godot's 2D graphics physics are still considerably behind Unity's in comparison, and the shading tools available aren't as advanced.

 Who owns Godot?

 
Godot legally exists as part of the Software Freedom Conservancy. As a not-for profit charity, they receive donations and, based on their mission statement, use them for the benefit of the project. As no company is behind Godot, it can't be sold or purchased. 2.
 
 
Godot has not developed that many graphic features yet. It works equally well with simple graphics but does not allow you to create a game with smashing 3D visuals. If you set side-by-side Godot vs Unity performance in the aspect of graphics, Unity will win.
 
 
TL;DR: We are getting closer than ever to releasing Godot 4.0. After years of development and countless hours spent by our contributors, we believe it's finally ready for production use. But no matter the amount of time dedicated to testing and profiling — bugs and issues are inevitable
   
 Does Tesla use Godot?
 
Tesla is using Godot e.g. for their Powerpack, Powerwall, Tesla Solar and Autobidder products. At Some Engineering Inc. use Godot as well, to visualize our infrastructure graph, and provide an intuitive experience to navigate your cloud assets.
  
 
It's called "exporting", and you can export your Godot project to several different platforms. Note that this leaves you with an APK. Publishing to the Play Store is completely separate and you should look to Google for directions on how to do that
