@and yeah it's so sad really - to me programming is very much equal to art.
it's weird tough - if you ask someone if they'd say a random video is art, they'd probably say yes.
but they'd never spend a thought about how the thing was even made (not talking about being generated now)
but even the most simplistic video game involves some kind of code
idk just some thoughts I had lel
I don't even know if this makes sense XD
@dancrescentwolf @and Doing programming for most of my life, it's hard for me to kinda.. not see it as art myself. It sure hurts seeing so many people around me and people I used to respect in this craft just.. throw it away >.<
Doubly so in game dev - like we're all making a creative work here???
Nov 5, 2026, 11:33 AM@CraftedCart @dancrescentwolf Having hang with game deva and made the mistake of talking about Code as Art and exploring what you can do in Lua. You will get yelled at and mocked by the Code as Utility crowd.
Game devs are kinda the worst cause code is either "in the way" or they only care about the technical cloat of solving hard problems. The LÖVE discord can be exhausting cause people seem to hate the language.
@and sadly I kinda don't understand anything you just said XDD
(I'm sadly not deep enough in this field but I love to learn!!)
