Thanks Luca for the reply.

I reuploaded https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/godot3_3.6+ds-3.html
and would appreciate if you have a chance to review it before some
games start to become uninstallable due to godot3 missing from
archive.

Diff of what is new compared to what is in archive already:

+godot3 (3.6+ds-3) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+  * Rename source package 'godot' -> 'godot3' for 3.x series maintenance. The
+    source package name 'godot' is now used for latest 4.x series.
+  * This 3.x series needs to stay in Debian, as most open source games are slow
+    to release versions that are compatible with the 4.x series, and we do not
+    want a large number of games to stop working in Debian.
+  * Update Vcs-git header with new repository name and branch name.
There are no
+    other changes, so this should be easy to process in the NEW queue.
