Vim Adventures VS fd

It surprises me how few people are aware of https://vim-adventures.com Beat that game and hjkl will feel just as natural as arrow keys, and so will a ton of vim commands.

That’s a good question. The built in tutorial is actually really good, you can launch it with “vimtutor” on the command line.
