I have always wanted to create a game and finally did. After almost 2 years of solo development, spending nights and weekends learning the godot game engine, the demo releases next week. Still got a ways to go but its an exiting milestone.

This is pretty cool! I assume twin-stick just refers to using both sticks on a controller?

And what would you say was the toughest part about learning the engine?

    yes both sticks on a controller, one to move and one to aim, but it also works well with keyboard/mouse. I think the hardest part learning the engine was just figuring out how everything works and adjusting how i piece things together. I was already coming in as a seasoned software engineer, i just had never worked in a game engine before, so it took some time to adjust how I work from my normal day to day. A lot carries over but a lot doesn't.
