Totally, man. You have to take care of your family. This looks like a cool idea, and I hope that it succeeds so well that financially supporting your family becomes a no-brainer.

I totally get that. When I saw the big turtle, my first thought was how cool it would be to use your feeding techniques train it and take it into silly treat-based naval warfare with other turtle realms. But it would be a whole other giant project. Maybe something to look into for a sequel, if this one is successful and you have all the single-turtle code completed and ready to copy-paste.

Is this the only Turtle, or are there others floating around space that a player could meet/interact with/ram into?

It reminds me of how people criticize AI art.
"All they do is sample other art, meld a bunch of pieces together into a new idea, and synthetize it as a new piece."
Okay. How is that any different from what we do?
