Jānis will showcasing a cool set of tools that allow you to debug your game visually similarly to Unity's Scene view. Visual Debugger is a tool allowing developers to debug their Godot projects while the application is running in the editor or in a build. There are GPU accelerated particles in Godot, but they don't support collisions.

As we progress through this tutorial series, I’ll be doing so with a focus on using no-code development tools rather than scripting to create games. Moving over to the right, you’ll see our workspaces , which we can toggle between to view our game or game scripts. So let’s jump in and start learning about Godot’s interface.

Such pointer could be reported as valid even though the memory it points to was not, or worse, that memory could now hold a different object, leading to hard to debug situations.
