Despite its age, my first and only encounter with it was in building godot. I was impressed from the user side. (Until, due to godot's dev policies (which might have changed by now) and not the fault of scons, a git pull resulted in a broken build even with a scons --clean. (Issue was some generated files had their parents removed by some commit, and the generated files were marked to not be cleaned by scons for some windows reason I think. Solution was to just delete them or do a git clean.)) But when I looked at their scons files, and their proliferation into every subdirectory like .svn folders, eh... The simple cases are simple, sure, but that's the case with everything. I think I'd only use scons for a project approaching godot's complexity -- especially amount of build targets -- and language mix (i.e. mostly C++).
