- Recreated Windows 2000 Minesweeper in Godot 4.1 with pixel-perfect accuracy.
- Spent 30% of time on game logic and 70% on menus, dialogs, and trivial details.
- Struggled with font rendering, eventually using W95FA font but couldn't achieve pixel-perfect display.
- Implemented custom DPI scaling with integer/pixel scaling, full canvas usage, and automatic browser DPI detection.
- Created a custom animated splash screen for web export to enhance user experience.
- Added original XYZZY cheat and unlocked custom size dialog bounds via a button.
- Saved game state to localstorage for quality-of-life resuming.
- Delayed release for over a year due to perfectionism over missing 'chording' feature.
- Overall positive experience with Godot, calling it lightweight and well-thought-out.
