# Godot Game Template

A starting point and reference project for creating games with the Godot Engine, particularly suited for top-down shooter games.

Project is located in [addons/top_down](addons/top_down/) to keep project conflicts to a minimum. It showcases recommended project structure.

This repository also includes [addons/great_games_library](addons/great_games_library), a collection of scripts that offer general-purpose solutions applicable across various games.

Additionally, for task organization, the project includes a simple [Kanban Tasks - Todo Manager](https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/1474) plugin.

> **⚠️ CAUTION:**  

> Due to an issues with a custom `AudioBusLayout` resource locations in Godot, I've kept the audio bus layout at its default location and name as [default_bus_layout.tres](default_bus_layout.tres).

> **NOTE:**  

> - This template is not recommended for beginners who may need a guidance.  

> - It serves as my personal project template and will continue to evolve as I develop my own game. Updates will be made until the project starts to go beyond the needs of a generic top-down shooter and into game-specific content.

> - All assets are made by me and are free to be modified and used for inclusion in commercial products, but not sold as your creation. Soon will be released as a separate package on [nezvers.itch.io](https://nezvers.itch.io)
