## What it is
GodotSteam is an ecosystem of tools integrating Valve's Steamworks SDK into the Godot game engine, available as pre-compiled engine modules and GDExtension plugins. It exposes Steam features like achievements, leaderboards, matchmaking, networking, and inventory to GDScript across Windows, Linux, and Mac.

## Use cases
- add Steam achievements and leaderboards to a Godot game
- implement Steam lobbies and matchmaking in Godot
- use Steam networking sockets or P2P multiplayer in Godot
- publish a Godot game on Steam with Steamworks features
- run a dedicated or master server with Steam integration
- access Steam friends, avatars, and rich presence from GDScript

## When to choose
- you are building a Godot game targeting Steam distribution
- you need Steamworks features (achievements, UGC, networking) without writing C++ bindings yourself
- you want a mature, actively maintained Steam integration for Godot 3.x or 4.x

## When to avoid
- your game targets engines other than Godot
- you are not releasing on Steam and don't need Steamworks
- you need a fully engine-agnostic Steam SDK wrapper
