GDScript is a high level, dynamically typed programming language used to create content. It uses a syntax similar to Python (blocks are indent-based and many keywords are similar). Its goal is to be optimized for and tightly integrated with Godot Engine, allowing great flexibility for content creation and integration.

Example from the web:

# A file is a class!

# Inheritance

extends BaseClass

# Member Variables

var a = 5
var s = "Hello"
var arr = [1, 2, 3]
var dict = {"key": "value", 2:3}

# Constants

const ANSWER = 42
const THE_NAME = "Charly"

Example from hello-world:

extends Node2D

func _ready():
	print("Hello World")

Example from Linguist:

# Taken from https://github.com/okamstudio/godot/wiki/gdscript
# a file is a class!

# inheritance

extends BaseClass

# member variables

var a = 5 
var s = "Hello"
var arr = [1, 2, 3]
var dict = {"key":"value", 2:3}

# constants

const answer = 42
const thename = "Charly"

# built-in vector types

var v2 = Vector2(1, 2)
var v3 = Vector3(1, 2, 3)

# function

func some_function(param1, param2):
    var local_var = 5

    if param1 < local_var:
        print(param1)
    elif param2 > 5:
        print(param2)
    else:
        print("fail!")

    for i in range(20):
        print(i)

    while(param2 != 0):
        param2 -= 1

    var local_var2 = param1+3
    return local_var2


# subclass

class Something:
    var a = 10

# constructor

func _init():
    print("constructed!")
    var lv = Something.new()
    print(lv.a)
