Though you don't really need this game to get started in VIM, but you do need to have practice sessions to try new things which is where this game seems to fit in. Like yourself, I mostly use other editors with Vim emulation, mostly I use VsVim in Visual Studio with Resharper ( I'm slowly creating a guide, though a long way from finished and mostly for myself! https://github.com/keithn/vsvimguide https://github.com/keithn/vsvimguide ). There I use a hybrid approach of core vim, vim like binding for resharper, and Resharper/Visual studio bindings. As long as my hands don't have to leave the main part of the keyboard I'm generally happy. It's insanely easy to code using this combination, and yes, frustrating watching others, and frustrating having to code on PCs not setup with Vim bindings.
