Looks awesome

I'm very sorry to hear that. I hope you find a job soon. I'm not in the US, but I have notice that the Job market here in Europe is worst I have ever seen.
Tough times.

You might have saved me hours and hours and troubleshooting.

Phantasy Star (the 1st version)

I'm not a VR fan. But I cannot wait to play this. Looks super well made and fun.

Man. I was looking for something like this.. Just a simple palette creator. Seriously

inventory and other areas I also have Model events triggering changes to the View layer.
So occasionally having Model talking to View is something I'm also doing. But always with events and typically when the Model change needs to be broadcasted to many listeners and not only in the MVC scope

Global Data can be Godot Globals (Autoloads) and I consider them also Model.
Global Controllers can also be Godot Globals (Autoloads) and I consider then Controllers.

I'm also experimenting with MVC in C#:
->Model: Pure C# class or Resource for data (no Scene node).
->Controller: Root scene script - Orchestrate Model and View.
->View: Child Node and Script handling meshes, anims, UI.

Prototype diagrams attached!

You can also use call deferred on child / parents code that can break due to loading order. Usually it's all it takes for me

Would love to test it mate

Project with Demo Scene and Windows Binary (C++ version) => github.com/DanTrz/Godot...

Actual GDExtension Code so you can compile binary for any other OS => github.com/DanTrz/Plana...

Godot Asset Store (old version) new one will be updated in the coming days) => godotengine.org/asset-librar...

To be honest, I know what you are talking about. But I think they are really nice, some of them are more like dinosaurs. However, the colours still make them feel a bit alien. Overall, they do give the sense of something "out of this world". I like them a lot.

Thank my friend

Even back then the art looked really nice. BTW.. How do you record your pixel art game? The quality is great
