Road to Vostok – Early Access Trailer is out!

1. February 2026 By admin

In July 2024, I first wrote about the game “Road to Vostok,” which was in development at the time, on my Patreon page.

What’s special about this game for me isn’t necessarily the survival thriller genre, but rather its origins as a Unity game and its subsequent transition to the Godot Engine. The developer log, which is very well documented, demonstrates that even projects of this size can be handled by the free and open-source Godot engine.

Starting in April 2007, this game will be available as Early Access on Steam (a demo for Windows is already available there):

Road to Vostok is a hardcore single-player survival game set in a post-apocalyptic border zone between Finland and Russia. Survive, loot, plan, and prepare to cross the border into Vostok, a permadeath zone where one mistake can end it all.

Congratulations to the developers!

Projects like this motivate me to create my own worlds in Godot, in 2d or 3d. For beginners and advanced programmers.

If you’d like to learn more about Godot and Game Development, you can find my German-language online courses here: https://visualisierungs-akademie.ch/

I offer also English-language courses through the pixeltrain Academy: https://www.pixeltrain.net/pixeltrains-academy/

I look forward to seeing you there!

Godot Engine 2025 Showreel

17. November 2025 By admin

Dear followers,

As you may have noticed, I’m currently very involved in various projects.
However, things have calmed down a bit now, and I have time to write content for you again.

Today, I’d like to draw your attention to the new Godot Engine Reel 2025.

Comparing this collection of projects with those of previous years, two trends are becoming apparent:

  • In addition to the very strong 2D games for which Godot is traditionally used, more and more 3D games are now appearing. This is a fantastic development, which is of course also thanks to the ever-improving 3D features of Godot 4.X.
  • Furthermore, the quality of the projects shown is constantly increasing. It’s clear that the Godot Engine is becoming more and more established, and more and more talented teams are relying on this open-source engine.

Enjoy!

Helge Maus

Godot Game Development Trainings / Schulungen

9. April 2025 By admin

The Godot game engine is rapidly developing into a strong alternative to established commercial giants like Unity or Unreal. Especially in the indie games sector, the Godot game engine offers everything you need for stable and flexible development of desktop and mobile games, without having to worry about licensing fees and regulations.

Well-structured training courses and seminars can provide an effective introduction to Godot and development in this engine.

For corporate training, you can find more information on my website at this link. I would be happy to put together a suitable training concept for Godot, GDScript, and C# for you. The training courses are offered remotely in English or German:
https://www.pixeltrain.net/godot/

If you are looking for a more affordable remote classroom training in English, then the pixeltrain Academy for Blender and Godot is just the right choice:
