About this Skill

76 game-development skills and an automatic router for engine-specific coding, game systems, playable genres, asset workflows, prototyping, and publishing.

Why we picked it

Useful when one game project spans several systems: the router combines engine APIs, portable techniques, genre structure, and shipping workflows. Members below link to their original skill folders; install the shared upstream package to retain the dispatcher and references.

What it helps with

  • Developers building or debugging games in a supported engine.
  • Teams adding reusable gameplay systems, UI, cameras, AI, saves, or feedback.
  • Creators planning a jam entry, testing a prototype, or preparing a game release.

How the router works

Engine detection chooses one engine from project files. Task classification adds the relevant disciplines, at most one main genre, and any shipping workflow. Instructions load in order: engine fundamentals, portable concepts, genre glue, then workflow. A change of engine or task triggers a new selection.

Official repository and catalog

Install and describe the task

Install the complete upstream collection with its router and keep each skill’s bundled references, scripts, and assets. The dispatcher selects an engine and the smallest relevant task set; a member listing is a focused entry into that shared package.

Example requests

“Add a double jump to my Godot player” routes to movement and platformer instructions. “Make an inventory for my Unity RPG” combines data assets, RPG structure, and saves. “Publish my game on itch with Butler” selects the itch.io workflow.

About the supplied banner

The cover is the author’s original repository banner. Its artwork still says “74 skills”; the reviewed source commit contains 76 specialized task entrypoints and one router. The member list below reflects that source inventory.

Official repository and catalog

Before you use it

  • An Agent Skills-compatible coding agent and the engine/toolchain needed for your project.
  • Existing projects keep their pinned engine and library versions; the catalog’s baselines apply to new projects.
  • Steam and itch.io publishing require the appropriate accounts, built game files, and platform tools.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to select skill names myself?

Usually no. Install the router with the catalog, describe the game task, and let it select the relevant engine and task instructions.

Does this include a game engine or ready-made game?

It contains agent playbooks and supporting resources. Your project supplies the engine, dependencies, assets, platform accounts, and build environment.
