How I learnt Golang with Ebitengine
summary
Learns Go by building games with Ebitengine and reports concrete obstacles and fixes: creates an intro, a leveled storyboard and then a full game; first two prototypes work but the full game hits Go’s import cycle not allowed error so packages are flattened and animation stops being a GameObject to break cycles; discovers value vs reference semantics affect state copies and uses interface-first design to protect internals against unsafe/reflection hacks.
