Mindustry: Open-source automation tower defense game
I just dove into this the last few months working through a Udemy course on building a vampire survivors clone in Godot 4....highly recommend (here is the author talking about it https://youtu.be/Yd-sndQnWIo?si=yWU9WJ2roSVlMzDE). I was amazed by the tooling and had a blast doing it. I'm primarily a backend dev and this scratched a different itch. There appears to be some RTS courses but I can't vouch for them. I would find one that looks interesting and dive in. I typed out all the code and did the steps as he did and feel like I learned a ton. I am still looking to learn more about multiplayer in Godot 4, but I found a few YouTube videos and it doesn't look super complicated, especially if you are not concerned off the bar about cheaters. Additionally I have been following this project (Godot 4 MMO), the code is organized pretty well: https://jdungeon.org/ but very early in development

Godot tests integrated in a github actions, how?
I am currently the main integrator of the opensource morpg JDungeon which is based on Godot. I am spending a lot of time on reviews which could easily be reduced by implementing some tests.

Tips you wish you knew sooner?
I found that same thread! I read through about 10-20 different similar threads hoping to find guidance, because creating and managing a bunch of one-shot timers is sort of tedious. I ended up writing a TimerGroup script where I can still create one-shot timers, but have the option to clean them up with timer_group.clear() if something unusual happens. And instead of calling await or yield I just hook up listeners.

get_parent() and get_node() considered harmful
There are many well-designed and clever uses of get_parent() and get_node() other than your naive approach of arbitrarily navigating the scene tree to create brittle code. Here's a script I wrote so that its parent button can be activated with more than one shortcut key (e.g opening a menu with either the 'back' or 'menu' button). I'm curious how you'd handle this scenario in a way that produces concise reusable code?

My open source Tetris-like game "Turbo Fat" is starting to come together
It's also open source if you'd like to pry into the source code or play it yourself. It's made in Godot 3.5.1 but I'd love to upgrade it to Godot 4 to play with all the new toys -- particularly CanvasGroups which will be a monumental improvement for my 2D rendering!

Labels add "+3" to all line spacing. Is this magic number "+3" accessible anywhere?
Here's my current code, it is provided a list of fonts and will apply the largest font which can fit all of the text. However, calculating "will this font fit" of course cares about the difference between a font taking up 12 pixels of space and 15 pixels of space, so I need that "+3" constant. Maybe there is a better solution!

I rewrote my game using Godot 3.5's SceneTreeTweens! Here's what I learned.
Overall I thought updating all of my code would take forever but I ended up doing it in a little over an hour. There's a little less visual clutter in my scenes now, since I don't need as many nodes. Here is the full change log if you really want to dig into the weeds! Thanks for reading.

A puzzley scene transition I made using GDQuest's transition shader tutorial. Thanks GDQuest!

I'm thinking on starting my own indie game, is it okay to just use assets I bought online?
However, if this is a game you're planning on to work on for a few months, publish on itch.io or Steam, or make money from -- then I recommend recording the licenses for all assets in your game, and keeping them in one place. For example, I have a big asset-license.txt file which tells me, for example:

Any tips on applying a big animated texture to parts of a tilemap?
The game is open source, and the source code is available here if you want to poke around. The offending scene is Overworld.tscn, specifically the viewports near the top of the scene.
What are some alternatives?
