The original Tron is hard to spend time with; the plot is convoluted and the graphics, for all they spent on them, have not aged well.
Eighteen years later, Tron Legacy is a lot like Avatar. The plot is nothing but it looks extremely cool. Every weeb I knew had a light cycle as their desktop wallpaper for a few months there. I’ve heard it described as an awesome Daft Punk album that came with a movie. As an audio/visual experience it’s spectacular, and landed at a time when slick glowy tech shit was actually in vogue, but the story isn’t compelling and the characters aren’t interesting so it had basically no cultural impact.
Fifteen years later, they made another one for some reason. So per this pattern, expect another one in 2037.
Hey now Tron Legacy also had a pretty fucking solid tie in game. If I could rip the light cycle mode out and make it an indie game I would, but alas I know no programing.
you can get remarkably far without knowledge in unity/godot, you just look up every single little thing you want to do and within a week you’ll have something

Sure but I would probably abandon the project out of irritation sooner or later. Better to not touch something I know I’ll abandon.
