    Dodge the Creeps and Conways Game of Life in Godot, and Nim!

  • There is also Nim-lang (also has Godot bindings) which is similar (although can compile to C/C++/JS and has interoperability with those), the big difference being style and ease-of-use. Nim is likely a better choice for gamedev especially given the control Nim gives you (optional+tunable GC, ORC seems like something that'd be good for games). It's not much, but I got started recently and added a decbinhex converter GUI example to Zetashift's examples but it hasn't been merged yet.

  • gdnative

    Rust bindings for Godot 3

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • godot-lang-support

    A community-maintained list of Language Support Projects for Godot Engine.

  • Or any language that has bindings.

  • Nim

    Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).

  • Also install Nim, btw.

  • godot-nim

    Nim bindings for Godot Engine

  • Ant then install the bindings. And thats where I'm a bit lost even after reading Godot docs. Not sure if I'm right, but seems to be necessary to compile Godot?

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
