Great post, thanks for sharing. I recently got lucky with rewards for some comments I made on Steemit so I threw in some SBD to promote this post in the hopes that people will take a look at CryptoZombies and try out Solidity development for themselves!

I recently did some of the tutorials on Solidity dev - what I found was the basics a pretty easy, but there are some really tricky and unpleasant gotchas you have to know about and take care of. Even experts can easily screw up. Fortunately there are tools that do some automated checking of your contracts, but nothing is perfect. It seems like they could easily improve Solidity to make it safer and hence easier to use in the future - plus developing tools that generate safe contracts in the first place.

Until then, let the Zombies fight! Bugs and all!
