git gud News

[p]It's another short update based on community feedback. I've made some minor adjustments for clarity on hints. But the major thing is adding switch and all the possible flags for branch.

Originally I was going to wait until release to update with the switch command but based on feedback from you guys I put in a few extra hours of testing to feel confident releasing it now during Next Fest. [/p][h3] Join the Discord[/h3][h3] Changelog - 0.2.0[/h3][p]- Added the switch command[/p][p]- Added every branch flag, this might have bugs as there is a lot new (thanks manfart2021)[/p][p]- Adjusted challenge 11 validator for new commands[/p][p]- Adjusted challenge 4 hints for clarity[/p]

[p]Hey everyone, I firstly just want to say thanks so much for playing git gud! Seeing so many people have downloaded and tried the game is fantastic to see as I didn't expect the game to appeal to many people as it is very niche (or so I thought). [/p][p][/p][p]And a huge special thank you to the users below who reported bugs that I was able to quickly get fixed for everyone.

I will note multiple people have reached out to me about Git 2.23 commands, mainly switch, missing from the simulation. This fault entirely lies on me. I was unaware how well adopted the 2.23 changes were and personally myself have always been taught and used the traditional checkout commands even though they are very overloaded.

Git 2.23 features such as switch and restore will be coming soon and will certainly be included by the time the game releases on the 17th. [/p][h3] Join the Discord[/h3][h3]

Changelog | 0.1.1[/h3][p]- Demo now includes the full Git simulation and is only missing the levels[/p][p]- Fixed bug with hints showing out of order (thanks Darquesse27)[/p][p]- Fixed branch --no-merged being called --unmerged (thanks Alfonso Matador)[/p][p]- Fixed init not accepting a directory name (thanks RIMA)[/p]

[p][/p][p]The wait is over – git gud is now live with a playable demo as part of Steam’s June Next Fest![/p][p]I’m incredibly excited for you to finally get your hands on it. Whether you're brand new to Git or just looking to sharpen your command line skills, git gud is designed to make learning Git feel like a game—because it is one![/p][p]Now, let’s be real: Git isn’t exactly known for being beginner-friendly or “fun.” But that’s exactly why I made this game. git gud gives you hands-on experience with a fully simulated Git environment, teaching you skills that go far beyond what GUI tools can offer.[/p][p]A quick heads-up: Git is massive, with countless commands and flags. There may be challenges with multiple valid solutions, or edge cases where your input isn’t recognized—yet. If something should work but doesn’t, please hop over to the Bugs & Solutions forum on the Steam Discussions page and let me know![/p][p]I've worked hard to make git gud as close to real Git as possible—even simulating complex features like interactive rebasing. It's a passion project, and your feedback will help make it even better for full release.[/p][p]Thanks so much for checking out git gud! I hope you enjoy the demo, and I’ll see you again when the full game launches on June 17th.
