@ArdainianRight @leyonhjelm @shieldholder The fact that they are somehow more emotionally manipulative than real women amazes me.

I can't believe I wasn't aware of this. Finally, we have a reliable, physical, gold-back currency that even works with small transactions.

Now we just need to get small businesses to accept them.

@bonifartius It should've been obvious long before that. The EU is a US creation.

@gabriel His site has been giving me 404 errors lately. It was doing the same months ago.

@Mr_NutterButter But for 2D games, I really don't see the need to use an existing engine, unless you are really bad a programming. Just use a framework like SDL, SFML, Pygame, MonoGame, or Love2D.

@Mr_NutterButter People still use Quake engines. ioquake3 is a modified Quake III engine that is used in a lot of open-source games. And modified versions of the Quake III engine are still used in the Call of Duty series.

Though, I don't know how it would work out for something like Godot. People only modified engines like Quake out of necessity. Something like Godot is more general purpose while the Quake engines were designed more for first-person shooters. Though engines like Quake can be configured to have a third-person camera without modifications (either through scripting or a configuration file), they were still developed with FPS games in mind. I don't know that many games using a modified version of Godot. It seems like it suits every purpose.

Also, not that many people open source their engines anymore. iD stopped open-sourcing their engines (including their legacy engines) after being bought out by Bethesda. Valve and Epic Games never open-sourced any of their engines. Instead, everyone is going for the "source-available" model where you can obtain access to the source code with certain license restrictions, if you pay premium.

Added an "open door" animation when you reach the exit. Now, you have to press the down key to proceed.
