Game Essentials

What you get

Settings menu that actually works out of the box:

• Resolution picker with all available display modes
• Window mode (windowed, fullscreen, exclusive)
• VSync toggle
• Audio volume sliders wired to real AudioServer buses (Master, Music, SFX)
• Full key rebinding with keyboard, mouse, and gamepad support
• Everything persists to user://settings.cfg automatically

Save/load system built on Godot resources:

• Multi-slot with configurable slot count
• Versioned saves with schema migration support
• Metadata on each slot (labels, timestamps, whatever you need)
• Signal-based API: game_saved, game_loaded, save_deleted

Menu scenes ready to restyle:

• MainMenu with Play, Continue, Settings, Quit
• PauseMenu with Resume, Save, Load, Settings, Main Menu
• Single Theme resource controls the look of everything
• All menus emit signals, no hard scene-path coupling

How it works

Copy addons/game_essentials/ into your project. Enable the plugin. Done.

SaveManager.save_game(slot, state, {"label": "Chapter 1"})
var save = SaveManager.load_game(slot)
