<p>If you are creating a commercial PC game using Godot there is a good chance you are going to want to publish on Steam. If that is a case if your game requires any network services such as achievements, a leaderboard or DLC you are probably tempted to use Steam’s own <a href="https://partner.steamgames.com/">Steamworks</a> suite of APIs. In that case you most likely want to know about <a href="https://gramps.github.io/GodotSteam/index.html">GodotSteam</a> an open source implementation of the SteamWorks API for Godot 2/3, providing convenient GDScript interfaces for the vast majority of the Steamworks features.</p>
<p>GodotSteam is an open source project <a href="https://github.com/Gramps/GodotSteam">hosted on GitHub</a> that is implemented using the Godot module system. The source code is under the flexible and permissive MIT license. There is a <a href="https://github.com/Gramps/GodotSteam/tree/gdnative">GDNative branch available</a> although sadly it appears to have been abandoned. Being a module means you will have to download and build your own version of Godot, a process I <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIPe51aEIjE">describe in this video</a>. If the world of Godot, modules and GDNative are all new to you, don’t worry, we have an overview <a href="https://gamefromscratch.com/godot-with-c/">available here</a>.</p>
<p>If you want to get started with GodotSteam there are excellent tutorials and comprehensive documentation <a href="https://gramps.github.io/GodotSteam/index.html">available here</a>. You can learn more about Godot, Steamworks and GodotSteam in the video <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQcRoPjK-lw">below</a>.</p>
