A few maybe. Doing an x-files watch and it's painful to go from "intense, relevant conspiracy stuff" to "here's some circus people with weird bodies"

Without a doubt, we've hit the point where some professional folks will be thinking they need to learn Godot.

If you're a small studio or an indie dev, I need you to understand that you're all that's gonna be left when the billion dollar oroboros that is the gaming industry finishes eating itself.

Make the games you wanna see.

It teaches you everything about isometry and what all the other game perspectives & projections are and how they work.

Though tbh I think that there's a reason why most people just bash their head against this guy, and that's the culture around Dark Souls prioritizing "gettin' good" rather than "clever solutions using the tools available" (which are often thought of as cheese).

The Capra Demon is a puzzle boss.
This is an INCREDIBLE piece of design. Having recently played through this and was VERY frustrated by Capra... this absolutely casts it in a new light.
