⚠️ A Godot 4.2+ version of this plugin can be found here!
⚠️ This plugin requires Google Play Games Services for Godot, which is a native plugin for Android. The addon on the current repository only provide a global singleton with code completion out-of-the-box, but it's not a requirement.
⚠️ In order to use the Google Play Game Services, you will need a Google Play Console developer account, which involves a once in a lifetime payment of $25 at the time of writing (January 2024).
This is a godot 3.5+ plugin for easier integration with the Godot Google Play Game Services Android Plugin. While this plugin is by no means necessary to integrate Google Play Games Services to your godot project, it provides a layer of abstraction on top of the Android plugin, giving you some interesting aids like code completion or mapping to typed objects.
This is a normal godot plugin. Just add the plugin folder called google_play_game_services_manager to your addons folder, and you should be good to go.
For further information on how to get your Google credentials for the integration, achievements, leaderboards, etc. please read the docs in the Android plugin.
The plugin provides an autoload that connect with the Android native plugin, organised in a fashion that follows the Google Play Games Services main features, like Sign In, Achievements, Leaderboards, etc.
Communication with Google Play Game Services is asynchronous, this means that you have to heavily rely on signals. The autoload methods call the Game Services and provides the subsequent signals for results.
These are the autoloads that the plugin provides so far, with their corresponding methods:
Included with this plugin, there is a demo project that you can run to see the features of the integration with Google Play Game Services. There are some steps that you have to do first, though, which are described in the Android native plugin docs.
⚠️ There are some ids from your game leaderboards, achievements, etc. that you need to change in the demo project interface.
In this document is listed the autoload signals and methods available for use inside Godot with GDScript.
After you install the addon and enable it in Project Settings... > Plugins, you should be able to access its functionalities through the singleton:
GooglePlayGamesServices.snapshots_load_game("mysavegame")These signals belong to the singleton and can be used by connecting them to a method.

GooglePlayGamesServices.connect("leaderboards_all_loaded", self, "_on_leaderboards_all_loaded")
