That’s some really slick animations! Did you create all the art yourself?

The web developer in me is screaming at myself too saying "bro you gotta make this responsive, it's not responsive".

I'm certain there is a way to scale the camera zooming, controls, and other stuff relative to the viewport, I just haven't gotten that deep into it yet.

Next thing I think will be saving high scores and stuff like that? There's also some stuff in this book too about adding multiplayer, but I'm not likely going to get too deep into that.

#Godot has a great debugger too: I didn't realize that I had screwed up my script for the GAME OVER screen, and although I had my signals for the RETRY and MENU buttons setup, they weren't triggering.

I think the script got dereferenced from the root node when I rearranged the nodes on the scene...

What’re you gonna make with Java?

I was gonna say spikes but you said no spikes…

Maybe boulders? Fires? Mammoths? Trees?
