How does one pick a tool/framework from these options when starting out with game development? I've seen the sentiment of "just pick anything" but the amount of choices is giving me some analysis paralysis.
Very cool what the VGHF is doing. In addition to magazines, old video game forums (old being early 2000s in this context) seem interesting to read from the few snippets I've come across.

You might like this website: https://www.cameronsworld.net/

It's a Geocities archive containing websites hosted on the platform from the 90s/00s. I really like the creativity and authenticity in the archived sites, it's like looking at a mirror into the past.

This is neat! Feels just like old cable, the static transitions being a good touch.
