Hi everyone,
I’ve been experimenting with Godot Engine for some non-gaming projects and am exploring its potential for healthcare software development. I’m particularly interested in building user-friendly, secure interfaces for managing medical data and would love to hear from anyone who’s worked on similar projects or has experience using Godot for healthcare applications.
I recently came across a company that offers healthcare software development services and provides a lot of interesting insights on how game engines like Godot can be used outside of traditional gaming, such as for medical tools and data management. They mentioned that Godot’s flexibility and open-source nature make it a great option for certain types of medical apps.
If anyone has any advice on using Godot for such projects or best practices for integrating it into healthcare applications, I’d really appreciate your thoughts!
Thanks in advance!
It would be helpful to provide high level requirements.
- Are there any standards or regulations that need to be followed?
- What types of interoperability is required?
- What kinds of data representation/generation is necessary? (E.g. Godot wont be able to produce a PDF, and you will need find/develop a plugin for printing. )

That’s an exciting project! I’ve seen Godot’s flexibility shine in non-gaming applications, and its open-source nature is indeed a big plus for healthcare software. For secure, user-friendly medical data interfaces, ensure robust encryption and HIPAA compliance. Check out this guide for valuable insights on healthcare software development. Happy to discuss best practices—feel free to share more details!
You must be aware of the high level of security and data integrity that is required by law in the US, GB and EU for anything that touches medical data. While I think it’s a great idea to apply Godot to applications other than games, starting with medical data might not be the best decision. It’s like planning to use Excel to store and process medical data - quick route to much greater complexity and expense than you would image.
