Topic: Godot/Key Concepts
From Rice Wiki
In Godot, a game is a tree of nodes grouped in to scenes and communicate with each other using signals.
A node is the most basic element.
A scene is a reusable element of the game; anything from an item to a map. They are made from groups of nodes and other scenes.
All of a game's scenes create a scene tree.
Nodes emit a signal when some event happens. This is the primary way for nodes and scenes to communicate.
