  • GDScript static typing is enforced
  • template scene to duplicate for any new scenes, with world environment and sun defaults
  • export presets for windows, linux, osx and web
  • default rendering method is set to Compatibility
  • ...and other settings
• godot debug menu for in-game performance / hardware metrics
  • input action is named cycle_debug_menu, set to Control+Alt+D and F3 by default
• godot debug camera for a simple 3D/2D debug camera
  • input action is named toggle_debug_camera, set to Control+Alt+C by default
• loggie for logging
• dev blocks for blocking out simple 3D scenes
• scenes for a simple threaded scene loader (TODO: publish this separately)
• shortcuts to provide some shortcuts (fullscreen, mute, mouse capture, etc.) (TODO: publish this separately)
• release.sh for building all exports
• butler.sh for uploading all exports to itch.io via butler
