Defold examples

Welcome to the Defold examples repo. Here you find a variety of Defold projects that you can use for study or as a base for your own work. If you want to scavenge them for assets that's fine too.

How am I allowed to use these assets?

Refer to LICENSE.txt

How do I include the assets in my projects?

If you are not comfortable using Git, you can download any of the examples separately in a zip archive.

• Create a new project in Defold and open it in the editor
• Right-click "game.project" in the Project Explorer and select Show in Finder (Mac) or Show in Explorer (PC)
• Download and unpack the examples archive you want
• Drag the contents of the archive to the location of the new project in the Finder/Explorer and replace the files in the project
• The editor will pick up the new files and you are ready to go

Alternatively you can add a project as a library dependency in a project. Add the zip url to the "dependencies" in the project section in "game.project".

If you have any questions about these examples, please don't hesitate to visit the Defold forum.
