After releasing the game on Nintendo Switch last August, we're happy to announce that Brotato, made with Godot 3, will be available next week on Xbox One, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5!

If you need help releasing your Godot game to consoles, feel free to get in touch 🙂

    Thats impressing! Are godot games hard to port?

      SeavenStudio Big congrats on the success and the console port! May you have a stellar console launch!

      gocat Are godot games hard to port?

      I imagine a lot of people would be interested in some insights into this (me included) 😛

      I'll second that. 😄

      Hey,
      I'd say the hardest part is behind us now with the release of Brotato!
      It was technically challenging but all good in the end - we're doing the same work right now for Godot 4 games, hopefully ready by this summer.

      Now going forward, porting a Godot 3 game will be easier for sure, but not 100% automatic : every project has its own difficulties / particularities that would need some adaptation/retake on our side. But definitely easier than one year ago 🙂

        SeavenStudio Can you give a rough estimate how the necessary work is distributed? Is it mostly rewriting parts of the engine or adding new platform specific code? That would be my guess at least.

          Toxe Adding new platforms is now done so there shouldn't need any more work on that side. Depending on each project (which functions are used, etc etc etc), the ratio would vary, probably having 50/50 between "making the game console compliant" and "making the game run smoothly and bugless / rewriting part of our engine to adapt".

            SeavenStudio Does most of the work go into the engine itself or do you also need to touch a fair amount of the game code or assets as well?

              Toxe the console compliant part usually needs to adapt the game code, we rarely change assets themselves. And then... depends on the project 🙂

              Thanks for the insights. 👍
