It's interesting how he says that he 'writes' games. Makes it feel like a book, and the writing in his games are often that good.

Well, you *write* code...

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

I prefer "do the logic" to "write the code", so I might be an oddball.

It's interesting how he says that he 'writes' games. Makes it feel like a book, and the writing in his games are often that good.

This is a convention that goes back to text-based adventure games. No need to go into history at this point, I'm sure, but it's something good to see.

It certainly shows a healthy attitude towards developing rather than spew out some kid buzz-words that you'd usually come flying from IPLY or other developers.
