Slay the Spire 2 is, quite handily, the most popular game ever made with the Godot engine, but the engine's operators say it was already comfortably on the rise.
In a new report on Godot's stats going into 2026, lead rendering maintainer Clay John examines the engine's rise in popularity through a couple of lenses. Some of the data is "a little messy," he admits, in its reliance on downloads from sites and sources like Github, Steam, and Google Play. But even with some "fragmentation," the trends are pretty consistent: Godot is gaining installs, downloads, and users.
