My first game made in Godot 4... A real nightmare.

I started learning Godot 4 about three weeks ago. I come from making games in Unity and always wondered what Godot had to offer (it was more than headaches, keep reading).

About a week ago I joined a jam here on itch.io. I decided to challenge myself and build a very basic game. Some concepts are very similar to what you can do in Unity, so all I had to do was to build the puzzle piece by piece.

At times, it was so easy, but when it was not, I suffered more than I would have liked to. You won't find that many video tutorials on godot 4. So your choices are trying to adapt some code from an earlier version or... cry.

What I think Godot lacks the most is advanced programming tools. You cannot, for example, extract methods or variables in GDScript. I just hope it gets better over time because...I liked it.
