Godot 3d Essentials skill

godot-3d-essentialsgamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skillsskills/godot/godot-3d-essentials/SKILL.md

Set up a Godot 4.7 3D scene: Node3D transforms, Camera3D, lighting (DirectionalLight3D/OmniLight3D), WorldEnvironment for sky/ambient/tonemap/post, MeshInstance3D materials, and GridMap for tile-based 3D levels. Use when building a 3D scene in a Godot project, placing cameras/lights, configuring environment and post-processing, or working with Node3D/.tscn 3D content and GridMap.

  1. ai-behavior-trees-utility-aigamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

    Build a production behavior-tree runtime (Blackboard, action/condition leaves, sequence/selector/parallel composites, decorators) and a Utility AI system (response curves — linear, exponential, sigmoid, quadratic — considerations, and action evaluators), plus hybrid BT-drives-Utility agents. Use when implementing a reusable behavior-tree or utility-based decision system, or tuning enemy/NPC decisions beyond a simple FSM, or when the user mentions behavior tree, blackboard, decorator, selector, sequence, tick status, utility AI, response/scoring curve, or consideration. For choosing between FSM/BT/steering or for pathfinding, use game-ai; for Unreal's BehaviorTree/Blackboard assets, use unreal-behavior-trees.

  2. audio-designgamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

    Implement game audio practice — bus/mixer architecture and gain in decibels, ducking (sidechain), adaptive/dynamic music via layering and re-sequencing, SFX variation, and beat synchronization. Engine-neutral. Use when the user mentions audio mixing, audio buses, adaptive/dynamic music, ducking, SFX variation, music layers, or syncing gameplay to the beat.

  3. bevy-ecsgamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

    Structure a Bevy app around its Entity Component System: build the App with plugins, define Component/Resource types, write systems with Query/Res/Commands, filter and order systems, and use the Time resource for frame-rate-independent motion. Use when building or debugging a Bevy game in Rust — when the user mentions Bevy, ECS, App::new, add_systems, Query, Commands, components/systems, or a Cargo.toml depending on bevy.

  4. camera-systemsgamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

    Build game cameras that feel good — 2D follow with a deadzone, look-ahead, smoothing, and level-bounds clamping; 3D third-person orbit with collision and first-person look; plus multi-target framing and a shake hook. Engine-neutral techniques that pair with the engine's camera node and rigs like Unity Cinemachine or Godot Camera2D/PhantomCamera. Use when the user mentions camera follow, follow camera, deadzone, look-ahead, camera smoothing, camera bounds/ limits, third-person camera, orbit camera, first-person look, Cinemachine, or camera jitter.
