Countdown time
With our 10-year-anniversary coming up, we look back at an unbelievable number of games made with the #GodotEngine
Over the next few days, we want to highlight two notable games from each year - one taken from Steam & one found on itchio
Let's start!
Before Godot became open source, it was used at OKAM Studio to develop games, the first being this interactive point & click adventure based on a popular comic book series
The first demo released in 2014, as preparation for a Kickstarter.
When sorting by age, this MonoGame remake seems to be the oldest itch upload out there. So grab a defibrilator and fight some zombies!
Multiple endings are being offered by this humorous text-based game, but what makes our pick extra special is that no one other than @coaguco made it, the maintainer of the #GodotSteam module!
It's free, so tell us what ending you get
This turn-based strategy game once started as a #GGJ submission, and ended up with a sequel. Isometric perspective and hand-crafted pixelart help this game look timeless
Includes a level-editor, so tag us in your creations!
A minimalist puzzle game, that helps you relax with some soothing piano music in the background
Someone on here once said that tools made with Godot kind of look like Godot - this fan-favorite is no exception.
Create your own RPG games, even if you don't know how to program or model yet. Most importantly, have fun being creative!
Have you ever wanted to be in charge of a space-station? This base management game let's you do exactly that, down to staffing and resource runs
Remember when Godot used to organize game jams? Wondering if we should bring that back...
This winner from the 2017 edition is a hellish cute runner game
This rougelike featuring turn-based robot fights was created by no other than our beloved tutorial-maker @heartbeast
Can you reach the end of the hallway?
French-style animation meets turn-based puzzles in this explicitly "non-gamer friendly" game
Who else is in love with the vivid art?
Let's start with the best news: a sequel to this successful fighter game is supposed to arrive this year!
Designed to be easy to pick up, yet there is a unique spin on the genre: every hit is lethal.
This game was inspired by collect-em-all RPGs, and is undeniably queer. While you try to calm down your clothes, you also get to experience a light-hearted yet emotional story about the trans experience
If you are wondering why you haven't heard of this game despite its 500k estimated downloads, then you probably don't speak Chinese.
Because this roguelike+chess crossover has a lot of fans! Try the English translation and become one yourself?
Two Steam games? Well, we simply had to add an honorable mention for this cute co-working simulator
It's free, and could make your working from home a little more wholesome.
This is what happens when you don't provide a logo for your game: Comic Sans.
Train your own pidgeon champion in this #LudumDare submission, and enjoy the ridiculous characters you will meet along the way - plays in your Browser!
Between the decription "An immersive power fantasy simulator with tactical stealth elements set in a sewage infused garbage world", the "Capitalism" tag, and being in an "Economic Body Horror" bundle, there is no better explanation we can write here.
Another jam game joins these ranks, this time by providing you with a long spear (who would've thought) and 13 explosive puzzles
In these past years, Godot and the games made with it have truly become international.
This word puzzle centers around Chinese characters, they literally build the level. You solve them by removing or shifting characters to change their meaning!
In this second game for 2022 you defending your dome against wave of alien attackers, and go digging for resources in your downtime. Upgrade your character wisely, and test how long you can last!
You might recognize this itch hit, because after a successful open beta it went on to become a fully-fledged commercial release!
Challenge your friends today in this turn-based 2D fighter game
2023 has been the year of countless great Godot releases. We had a REALLY hard time only picking TWO fan-favorites...
The first obviously being this action roguelike inspired by the infamous Vampire Survivors. Become a 6-weapon-wielding potato!
For the second shout-out, we present you a monster-collecting RPG that allows you to fuse your fighters and make them even more powerful!
And last but not least, here you can play the result of a company-internal game jam by @megacrit (who you might know as the makers of Slay The Spire)
Familiar deck-building mechanics meet auto-battles meet bumpin' soundtrack
@godotengine It's a great game, but never migrated to godot3, :(
@eickot @godotengine Tanks Of Freedom 2 is a work in progress written in Godot 4.
@tab @godotengine yes I know, and in 3D
@godotengine I've been wondering, if we could do a Linux mobile game jam and find some sponsors
@razze @godotengine What do ya mean by Linux mobile? Talking about Android or Ubuntu touch? Or just Android AND GNU/Linux Desktop?
@smorty @godotengine not android. Phosh, kde plasma mobile, gnome shell etc. DE shouldn't matter
@razze @godotengine right, I forgot about those! Thanks for reminding me! Don't think it'd be a huge hit though. Too little people are using GNU/Linux on mobile, so maybe there would be like 4 participants, two of which actually have a mobile phone with GNU/Linux. Cool idea though, to make a game jam specifically for the GNU/Linux mobile platform.
@smorty @godotengine I don't think you need to have a real phone, but might depend on the engine you end up using
@razze @godotengine fair point, it'll probably run the same as it would any other arm based GNU/Linux desktop. Maybe a mobile ja in general would be better, and it should just be a requirement to have to export to Android AND GNU/Linux mobile. This would increase the amount of participants and amount of games produced for Linux mobile.
@godotengine the game jam "market" is oversaturated anyway, in my opinion, and there are multiple unofficial Godot jams, so i don't see much of a point tbh.
@godotengine I'm not 100% sure, but I think @CassetteBeasts might also be the very first (and so far only) Godot game covered at #AGDQ, no? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgyRq2mT6Fw
@godotengine cassette beasts is so cooL!!!
@godotengine started playing this one recently and I've been enjoying it so far!
@godotengine this game made me start using godot if you haven't played it you absolutely need to check it out
@godotengine That's a duolingo level roast
@ivan_reshetnikov don't make the graphic designer struggle is all we are saying xD
@CauseOfBSOD Congrats!
@godotengine Did you check Your Only Move Is Hustle? It's a pretty unique and amazing godot game I've never seen mentionned anywhere on your showcases.
@obanigarage hah, what a coincidence to read this as we're about to upload the 2022 batch
@godotengine I did not realize how long RPG in a Box has existed already!
@godotengine are you saying that Godot looks like Godot, because the Godot UI is made with Godot?
