I'm a math teacher. I use my video game making knowledge from Godot to make little video games to review skills. Each takes a few weeks to make with game design, making all the art, programming, and making the worksheet.

Here is my Disco Dj-Demo if you were curious what I mean.

I think it's fun, it's not something I can really chat with others about.

You're amazing and your students are lucky to have you. Thank you for being you!

If someone I knew made entire freaking games and didn't tell me about it I'd be pissed! That's really cool and you should wear it on your sleeve, imo.

How the hell is this not the only thing you talk to others aboutโ€ฝ This is fucking cool!

You are awesome. Thanks for being a good teacher and making math as interesting as it is for your students. And your hobby is fucking cool too.

I am a programmer (as in it's my job) and I can't really program anything in Godot. I've done the dodge the creeps tutorial and did some more tries, but I don't really get game dev. It's definitely a unique skill.

That's amazing! I am really impressed.
