Learning Code and Tutorials

I am excited to learn more Godot. However I have purchased a couple tutorials from Zenva, and I see they are using 3D models in Godot. Now I need to learn Blender so I can make 3D models possibly for the video games ideas.

Cold and Hot

I am starting to read my book that I bought in Helsinki about sauna. The first page explains the simple process: Get hot in Sauna Sweat born in sauna cleans the body from inside out Cool down by rolling in snow or going for icy dip Refreshes mind and body, creating a feeling of being reborn. Very contrasty. So how to make a game out of that? Find different saunas around the world to go to....
