What it does

A library of game development skills plus a router that spots your engine (Godot, Unity, Unreal, Phaser, three.js, Bevy, Roblox and more) and loads the right playbooks for the task, from a double jump to save slots to publishing on itch.

A collection of plain SKILL.md playbooks for making games with an AI coding agent. A router skill checks which engine your project uses and loads the matching engine, genre and workflow skills for each request.

A prompt to try

In this Godot project, add a double jump and coyote time to the player, then explain which skills you loaded.

Written by us so you can reuse it. Replace each [bracket] with your details.

Step by step

  1. Open the GitHub repo and look at the skill catalogue.
  2. Install everything: npx skills add gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills (needs Node.js 22.20+; add --list to preview first).
  3. Or in Claude Code: claude plugin marketplace add gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills, then claude plugin install gamedev@awesome-gamedev-agent-skills.
  4. Describe the feature in plain words inside your game project; the router picks the skills, you never name them.

Watch out for

The skills are playbooks, not engine plugins: you still need the engine installed and your agent still writes the code. If you only use one engine, install the router plus that engine's bundle to keep your agent's context small. Pairs with Claude Code Game Studios (team roles) and the Unreal Engine skills already listed here.
