Today has been all about UI anchors, themes and buttons! Using buttons to navigate a dialogue, for example. It was fun and I was able to include a fair bit of experimentation in this too.

It is definitely my main goal now to include experimentation into everything I learn.

However, I want to first get a solid grasp of the fundamentals of working in Godot to get a feel for what my possibilities are.

Therefore I will first make a couple of small and easy starter projects, probably with pre-existing assets, just for myself and just to learn how to properly make a game.

The goal of all of this is to realize an idea I have had in my mind for the past months. The concept has not let go of me ever since I thought of it.

I feel like I owe it to myself as well as the concept of the game to properly learn game dev, and stick with it long enough to make it reality.

I expect other aspects to take up large chunks of time and sometimes progress will feel slow, which is fine.

The point is to work at it every day.
