Been playing around with Godot this week. Quite amazed with how fun it is to brush of old game theory I studied over 10 years ago come to good use. Game a really nice and fun game loop in place for my Pokemon Rouge-like clone. Game evolves around arguing with managers one at the time to get a raise.
