Using Resources and Dictionaries for Godot Game Development

Resources may be the most helpful tool in Godot. Dictionaries are great in the right circumstances but are often confused with resources. Many developers do understand how to use resources and dictionaries but don’t understand when one should be used over the other. So today I wanted to put together this tutorial with the goal of providing all the information you’ll need to make those decisions confidently within your own Godot projects!

I hope the video proves helpful and if you’ve got any questions at all then please let me know in the comments and I’ll be sure to get back to you shortly! Remember the only silly question is the one never asked!

These tutorials can be time consuming and as I work to become a better teacher and learn how to improve my explanation of Godot concepts better I'd love to ask if you'd like to help support this journey to help other game developers learn to create their own games then please.. become a member!!
