Unofficial Godot installer for Ubuntu Desktop

This is an unofficial Godot installer for Ubuntu and probably all other Linux distros that use the GNOME DE (IDK I NEVER TESTED).

Why did i create this

I know it may be useless but one day I was bored and said "Wait, Godot doesn't have an official installer because it's a portable executable, just a 100MB binary file, I can waste some time creating one… Or just play with some bash" and decided to write a small bash script to "install" Godot and create a launcher item, so I can pin it and have it on the dock.

How to use

Clone the repository by running the following

git clone https://github.com/CheesymoonBrainstorms/Godot-Installer.git

cd into it and run the cloned repo and run the installer

cd Godot-Installer/
./install.sh

You will be prompted for the URL of a zip archive with the Godot binary file in it. You can use the zip file of one of the releases from Godot's GitHub like this one https://github.com/godotengine/godot-builds/releases/download/4.3-stable/Godot_v4.3-stable_linux.x86_64.zip

Note

If you run the script, and you get a permission denied like this bash: ./install.sh: Permission denied then you can run the following command. It should run without any problems after:

chmod +x install.sh
