Godotcaml for Godot 4.2

Oh this is really cool! It also feels highly targeted at my interests (I worked professionally in OCaml for many years, now make games, and bounced off of Godot because I found GDScript really unpleasant to program in[1]).

From looking through the TODOs here, I think the one thing that would stop me from playing with this soon is signal support. I can't quite tell how non-existent the signaling support is here: can I just Obj.magic (unsafe cast) stuff and get it to work, albeit without type safety? Signals in Godot are great and I'm already used to them not being type safe (they're just strings in Godot 3! Gross!) so that'd be tolerable.

Anyway, very cool stuff.

[1] I've been meaning to go back at try out C#, which might be more my taste. I held off partially because I don't know C# yet and partially because examples for C# in Godot seemed a little lacking when I last looked - but also because Godot 4 web exports were pretty busted for a while, which irritated me enough to make me use something else. I think there's been some progress here though!

I think it'd be interesting to compare against F#, especially since Godot already has first-class support for .NET. When the bindings get fully fleshed out, what will OCaml bring to the table to warrant the extra hoops for the user that has no prior preferences for either languages?

Miguel de Icaza's [Swift Godot](https://github.com/migueldeicaza/SwiftGodot) effort is also very active and worth tracking I think.

Which all languages have viable bindings with Godot 4.x?

Does Java have one? What about Javascript?

I want to try my hand at development, what would you suggest to shorten the learning curve, Godot or Unity (https://unity.com) ?

Why didn't Ruby take off in the game industry? As I understand OOP is a critical language feature which led to the success of Java and C#. Is it maybe because of dynamic typing?

OOP experience in Ruby is very pleasant and I wish the language was used more.

This kinda just made me curious about the Rust api. Sorry. :)

This is going to sound stupid, but bear with me. Godot is a very simple engine once you get past its learning curve. I know that this thing could be said about anything, but you only need a couple of hours/days to grasp the basics. And once you know the basics, you pretty much know the whole engine and can refer to documentation for anything you want to do. For example, for a Godot beginner even creating a simple 3D cube can be a problem. But once you understand that you need to compose it out of different building blocks, how you should do this and why, everything clicks. It's a delight, I recommend everyone to try Godot

exciting and unexpected. i'll try it but i'll be pleasantly surprised if it's good

Quite nice achievement.
