people will do anything to avoid using .gdscript and Godot....

I like Godot, but you're not getting it running on a PS2.

gdscript does not do any fancy JIT or AOT compiling. I don't see why you can't get gdscript running fairly easily.

gdscript itself, sure, why not. Porting the entire Godot engine would be a real feat though, especially because of the PS2’s technical limitations.

Someone did compile Godot (v2) for PS2 and did run it but seems like they gave up trying to run/export any games with it[1][2]. Somehow, the PSP port[3] (also v2) is more successful[4].

To be fair, it's not as simple as building in Godot and exporting to PS2.

Unity has at least one experimental option that does exactly this.

It's too bad that Unity is a horrible company and a dying platform
