I always thought Cave Story had an interesting take. Guns level up with experience, but you lose experience with a gun if you get hit. It’s a fluid reward for doing well, a punishment for mistakes, and an incentive to get better

I agree, but at the same time, having no faith in the two party system is depressing. There’s nothing else, it feels like there will never BE anything else. It’s the two party system all the way down.

My perfectionism is stopping me from continuing. I’m afraid I’ll make something bad. But also, as it turns winter, I’m sure many more devs will struggle with the same issues!
