Godot is a 2D and 3D open source game engine developed by Godot Engine community. It features a built-in development environment which runs on Windows, OS X and Linux and can create games targeting PC, mobile and web platforms.

Godot Engine is a fully-featured, MIT licensed 2D and 3D game engine, which can be used to create games, apps and gamedev-related tools. It has been open sourced under the MIT license and is now developed and maintained by the Godot Engine community.

The engine supports multiple scripting languages. Aside form C, VisualScript and C# it also offers it's own programming language called GDScript. GDScript is a dynamically typed scripting language with a Python-like syntax. Alternatively, the developers can use C++ to add or improve functionality.

On 6 July 2023, the Godot Engine contributors released version 4.1 (announcement).

The current stable version is 4.1.1.

I know it's possible to slice an array in python by array[2:4]. The way I get around this is to just loop through the indexes I want and append them to the new_list. This way requires more work is there just a simple way to do it like in python?
