In this Godot tutorial, I will explain to you what is the Singleton Pattern and how can we leverage it via the Autoload feature in the Godot Game Engine. The Singleton Pattern can be used to have a unique instance of a given class, thus enabling you to keep the state of any component between scene changes. This pattern is implemented via Godot Autoload, which is the concrete way for the engine to deal with this game design pattern.
