    My experiences on coding since I started my gamedev journey 5 months ago are (no prior coding or programming experience): First days/months you will have the shock of knowledge flow and it is not certain that it will ever be over, at least it will decerase over time let's say (copium). When i open up IDE and look at the blank page my instant reaction was always "so what now?" to escape from this shitty feeling I think you have to section your learning, what i mean by that is : basic stuff ---> intermediate stuff ---> *ok i think im capable of doing what i am thinking tier stuff* If you tried to learn a foreign language in the past you can understand the "I can understand what they are saying but I can't talk", this is the same situation in coding, I first started with reading and understanding the usages and i think this is maybe the only thing i did correct for my learning. I am feeling uncapable and not enough in most cases still but I am feeling improved for the ability to decide a roadmap to implement things, also some bits of coding isn't scarier anymore. I did code things as I wanted the way they are planned to be and the feeling of your creation working is an amazing feel you will discover yourself. There is a lot of things to talk about but i am lazy so good luck bro. Btw amazing video, If needed I will be back to this and check my mistakes over and over again.

    Love the vid! As I am a huge fan of myths and legends (favourite author of all time was Rick Riordan), I would love to play this game. I have only one suggestion for this game which is adding something like the enemies of the gods, for example the Titans in Greek mythology, helping the main character. For example, you can add something like Hyperion's blessing (the titan of light/brightness), which will apply a dazzling status that stuns the enemy for a few seconds, Would be a very cool idea.

    In the Indian mythology, there are many creatures that can be used as monsters, however most of them are "vahanas" or rides that the gods use.. I would like some mechanic like that so that you can tame/ride specific creatures that are actually rides of the Indian gods that you subdue

    What about a Weeping Angel? It's not really mythology, but it'd add a unique enemy to the game and I'd think it'd be fun to come up with attacks for!

    In Flanders, Ossaert is the name of a water ghost known to strangle people. But that’s just one guy and he generally didn’t kill people. In Frisia, there’s a similar story. Unlike the Belgian one, this spirit doesn’t have a personal name but is known as the Grypkagrauw, which means the Grab-you-Grizzle. It’s an invisible forest spirit that comes out at night. It grabs victims by the head and turns it 180 degrees. The myth has it that many people were found like that on early mornings. It is sometimes said to be invincible and has incredible strength but it only attacks from behind.

    The Parthenon doesn't have any bricks and the pillars are white, and also usually the greek gods dont fight just assist the people that they want to win or take descises to hide their true identity. You can just not go by the rules but personally would not recommend 👎 but ok I guess that you want to go with a not correct version. Just make sure that the details that don't effect gameplay are accurate. (Also some details on the sky would help)

    I know this may seem like an odd request, but I'm a game developer who's making a top-down roguelike, but I'm stuck on just on a roll animation, whenever I try animating it on my own it ends up really ugly. At the moment I have all of the necessary animations for my game. Can you make a roll animation for me? if yes just reply to my comment if you're interested. Thanks for reading. You really don't have to, but I thought this would be a good place to ask.

    Hello dear Lewis! I beg you to add at least one element from Turkic mythology (not TURKISH, those are different things although end up at a similar door) because, at least to my knowledge, there is only one game that does anything with the Turkic mythology, and it is called Uruz. My suggested characters that suit the game’s flow are mainly Kayra-Han, a part of the Turkic god Kök-Tengri, Umaysu-Ana, goddess of fertility and Su-Ana, the goddess of any water.

    The toaster does technically have a tiny bit of foreshadowing. A lot of parts of headspace become surprisingly morbid when you remember that "Toast" is supposed to be a euphemism for "Corpses", like how Rococo states he survived in sweetheart's dungeon off of toast... and when you use the toaster it says "You made toast." Which, frankly, is hard not to read as "You killed someone." Funnily enough, if that was the intent with that line, it means, the answer as to what happened is, very literally, staring you in the face before you even think to ask the question.
