Replace ADD_YOUR_APP_ID with the app id that was generated after following instructions on Setting Up Google Play Games Services

Check demo project. In order demo project to work, replace <string name="app_id">ADD_YOUR_APP_ID</string> with your own app id, and in Main.gd add your ids for achievements and leaderboards.

Generate plugin .aar file

If there is no release for your Godot version, you need to generate new plugin .aar file.
Follow these instruction: official documentation.

In short follow these steps:

  1. Download AAR library for Android plugins.

  2. Copy .aar file to godot-lib.release/ and rename it to godot-lib.release.aar

  3. Compile the project:

    Open command window and cd into PGSGP direcory and run command below

    • Windows:

      gradlew.bat assembleRelease

    • Linux:

      ./gradlew assembleRelease

  4. Copy the newly created .aar file to your plugin directory:

app/build/outputs/aar/GodotPlayGamesServices.release.aar to [your godot project]/android/plugins/

First step is plugin initialization

var play_games_services
# Check if plugin was added to the project
if Engine.has_singleton("GodotPlayGamesServices"):
  play_games_services = Engine.get_singleton("GodotPlayGamesServices")
	
  # Initialize plugin by calling init method and passing to it a boolean to enable/disable displaying game pop-ups
  
  var show_popups := true 
  play_games_services.init(show_popups)
  # For enabling saved games functionality use below initialization instead
  # play_games_services.initWithSavedGames(show_popups, "SavedGamesName")
  
  # Connect callbacks (Use only those that you need)
  play_games_services.connect("_on_sign_in_success", self, "_on_sign_in_success") # account_id: String
  play_games_services.connect("_on_sign_in_failed", self, "_on_sign_in_failed") # error_code: int

  play_games_services.connect("_on_achievement_info_load_failed", self, "_on_achievement_info_load_failed")
  play_games_services.connect("_on_leaderboard_score_submitted", self, "_on_leaderboard_score_submitted") # leaderboard_id: String
  play_games_services.connect("_on_leaderboard_score_submitting_failed", self, "_on_leaderboard_score_submitting_failed") # leaderboard_id: String
  play_games_services.connect("_on_game_saved_success", self, "_on_game_saved_success") # no params
  play_games_services.connect("_on_game_saved_fail", self, "_on_game_saved_fail") # no params
  play_games_services.connect("_on_game_load_success", self, "_on_game_load_success") # data: String
  play_games_services.connect("_on_game_load_fail", self, "_on_game_load_fail") # no params
  play_games_services.connect("_on_create_new_snapshot", self, "_on_create_new_snapshot") # name: String

  play_games_services.connect("_on_player_info_loading_failed", self, "_on_player_info_loading_failed")
  play_games_services.connect("_on_player_stats_loaded", self, "_on_player_stats_loaded")  # json_response: String
  play_games_services.connect("_on_player_stats_loading_failed", self, "_on_player_stats_loading_failed")
