<description>Details on the project structure I'm using for Godot, based on preference and some research I did.</description>

-<p>And so on, I hope the idea is clear. Basically you need to abstract some entity/object that you&rsquo;re going to use into its more basic form and use subdirectories for each level of abstraction (a player is an actor and thus we use actor/player; a box is part of the world, and is a level so we can use levels/common/decor/box or something like that). Once you have the most basic abstraction done, anything that belongs to that abstraction will have all of its assets/sounds/shaders/etc in it&rsquo;s directory.</p>]]></content:encoded>
