Inventory System 2 Alpha 4 available

March 20, 2025

This release finally uses Godot Engine 4.4. It adds the GGCraftingSystem singleton and updates the GGInteractable2DStrategyCrafting class to use it. The crafting editor nodes now have prefixes, which makes it much easier to search for specific recipe or item nodes in larger crafting libraries.

Some syntactic sugar was added as well. You can now easily iterate over an GGInventory object to iterate over its contents:

var inventory: GGInventory = $GGInventory

for item: GGItemData in inventory:
    if not item: # skip nulls
      continue
    print(item)

The inventory addon now also includes an export plugin, which automatically excludes the editor addons from being included in exported games. This helps reduce the size of the .pck file.

To make interactions easier, the addon now includes a GGInteractable2DStrategyExpression class. This makes it easy to add one-off interaction integrations without having to create a new class.

For additional details, please see the alpha 4 changelog.

    Audio Manager to handle the loading of sound effects in bulk

    Years ago I purchased a game dev bundle on HumbleBundle. Part of that was a sound library called Pro Sound Collection. It’s pretty comprehensive, whether RPG or FPS, there are sounds for a ton of use cases. I might as well use them for something. Luckily for me, the sound collection is pretty well organized. …

    Valve announces the Steam Deck

    Just recently Valve announced the Steam Deck, a hand-held gaming device with the capability to play your entire Steam game library. This is huge.

    Update all resources after modifying a resource class

    Godot’s resources are quite powerful. However, modifying a resource class doesn’t automatically update any corresponding .tres files, unless you happen to edit a scene that uses that resource in some way. This doesn’t impact runtime behavior — the game still runs as expected. But it can impact version control and result in a messier diff …
