Plan, generate, source, normalize, and validate cohesive visual game assets. Use for art direction, style bibles, sprites, tilesets, backgrounds, UI art, icons, textures, concept art, or 3D asset briefs.

Routes any game-development request to the right specialized skill(s): it detects the engine (Godot, Unity, Unreal, Bevy, Phaser, PixiJS, three.js, LÖVE, pygame, Roblox) and the task, then reads the chosen skill before acting. Use to make a game or to decide which skill applies — for players, levels, enemies, shaders, art direction, sprites, tiles, textures, 3D assets, UI/UX, cameras, game feel, physics, input, audio, saving, multiplayer, AI, dialogue, procedural generation, or performance, for genres (platformer, roguelike, RPG, FPS, tower-defense, card game, visual novel, survival-crafting,

Build branching dialogue and narrative — a node/choice graph with conditions, variables, and localization hooks — and choose between authoring tools Ink and Yarn Spinner or a custom data-driven runner. Engine-neutral. Use when the user mentions dialogue system, branching dialogue, conversation tree, choices, Ink (.ink), Yarn Spinner (.yarn), or NPC dialogue.

Data & Analytics · gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

Design NPC and enemy decision-making with finite state machines, behavior trees, steering behaviors, and A* pathfinding — engine-neutral algorithms that pair with the detected engine's navigation API. Use when building enemy AI, an FSM or behavior tree, steering/flocking, or pathfinding, or when the user mentions state machine, behavior tree, blackboard, A*, navmesh, seek, or patrol/chase.

Backend & API · gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

Generate game content procedurally — seeded deterministic RNG, value/Perlin/ Simplex noise for terrain and heightmaps, grid dungeon generation (rooms + corridors, BSP, random walk), and weighted loot/drop tables. Engine-neutral algorithms. Use when the user mentions procedural generation, perlin/simplex noise, random seed, dungeon generator, heightmap/terrain, or loot tables.

Content & Marketing · gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

Add "juice" and game feel that makes actions satisfying — screen shake, hit-stop/freeze frames, tweened/eased motion, squash & stretch, knockback, and layered audio-visual feedback — as engine-neutral techniques that pair with the detected engine's tween, particle, and camera APIs. Use when the user mentions game feel, juice, "make it feel good/punchy", screen shake, hit stop, screen freeze, easing, squash and stretch, impact frames, or feedback/polish on hits, jumps, pickups, and deaths.

Media & Video · gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

Tune game physics for stable, good-feeling motion — fixed vs variable timestep, render interpolation, mass/gravity/drag, continuous collision detection (CCD) to stop tunneling, fixing jitter, and collision layers/masks. Engine-neutral. Use when the user mentions physics feel, jitter, tunneling, fixed timestep, FixedUpdate, CCD, bouncing/unstable physics, or collision layers.

Build game cameras that feel good — 2D follow with a deadzone, look-ahead, smoothing, and level-bounds clamping; 3D third-person orbit with collision and first-person look; plus multi-target framing and a shake hook. Engine-neutral techniques that pair with the engine's camera node and rigs like Unity Cinemachine or Godot Camera2D/PhantomCamera. Use when the user mentions camera follow, follow camera, deadzone, look-ahead, camera smoothing, camera bounds/ limits, third-person camera, orbit camera, first-person look, Cinemachine, or camera jitter.

Find and fix game performance problems methodically — measure with the engine profiler first, reason about the frame-time budget, locate the CPU-vs-GPU bottleneck, then apply the right fix: object pooling, draw-call batching, fewer allocations/GC spikes, and asset budgets. Engine- neutral method that pairs with each engine's profiler. Use when the user mentions performance, optimize, low/dropping FPS, frame drops, stutter, lag, profiler, frame budget, draw calls, batching, garbage collection/GC spikes, object pooling, or "the game runs slow".

Design & Presentation · gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

Design and build playable levels — the blockout/whitebox-to-playable workflow, player metrics and grid layout, pacing and flow (tension/rest curve), gating and the critical path, and encounter design. Engine-neutral practice. Use when the user mentions level design, blockout/whitebox/greybox, level layout, level pacing, encounter design, or the critical path through a level.

Backend & API · gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills

Architect game input — action mapping (abstracting keys into named actions), rebinding with conflict detection and persistence, multi-device support (keyboard, gamepad, touch), analog deadzones, and feel features like input buffering and coyote time, plus accessibility. Engine-neutral. Use when the user mentions input mapping, rebind controls, gamepad support, deadzone, input buffering, coyote time, or accessible controls.

Design and build game UI/UX — HUDs, menus, and overlays — that survive every screen: anchor- based responsive layout, resolution/aspect scaling and safe areas, keyboard/gamepad focus navigation, a screen/menu state stack, and event-driven (not polled) HUD updates. Engine- neutral patterns that pair with the detected engine's UI skill. Use when the user mentions HUD, health bar, main menu, pause menu, settings screen, UI layout, anchors, UI scaling, aspect ratio, safe area, controller/keyboard menu navigation, or wiring UI to game state.
