Micky Codes
Godot plugins, a Microsoft Store app and a 1st-place game jam game, all built in public.
Software engineer | Game developer Let's explore the codding world.
Micky Codes is a software and game dev channel that builds in public, from Godot plugins to desktop tools. Mels, its local-first desktop API client, made it onto the Microsoft Store. Games come from jams, like The Cashier, which took 1st place at a local Global Game Jam, and from the channel's indie studio, Melkam Studios. AIMLite, its tool for scaffolding AI projects, reached the top 5 at the stark.et hackathon and kept shipping updates after.
- The channel has posted at least once a week for 37 weeks in a row, and the streak is still going.
- Recent pace: 23.7 posts a week on average.
- Its most-used word is "game", which fits.
The journey.

Hello World, Hello C++
The channel opened in October 2025 while promoting the Cyber Game Jam, then took Tegen, its C++ package manager, from v0.1.0 to v0.3.0 in about a week. In November its BetterAuth Godot Plugin was accepted into the Godot Asset Library, and a game tagged Sustainia got a finished quest system.

The Shipping Stretch
Between May and August 2026 the channel shipped Melkam Browser, which runs Python in web pages, then published the DotEnv and AddisAI plugins for Godot. A WebView extension for Godot was even used to build a Google Chrome clone. August ended with Mels on the Microsoft Store and Yadgar, an open-source desktop state recovery engine.

Hackathon Nights
September opened with DrawViz, a technical drawing tool that grew from 2D isometric sketches into a Three.js 3D studio, and a Voxide voice AI plugin for Godot built for a hackathon game. In October AIMLite reached the top 5 at the stark.et hackathon and kept going after missing the win. ThreeDot followed, bringing Godot's node system to Three.js.
