    whatever you do, don’t look into its code.

    It’s basically a single lua file with more if/else/switch nesting than god intended

    (unless it was refactored in the last couple months)

      Why not? On the same way you don’t need amazing art to make a fun game, you don’t need amazing code either. If the game is fun then it’s a success.

      Apparently Undertale works this way as well. All of its dialog is one massive switch statement.

      Yeah a lot of games have shit code and always have. Real time strategy “ai” is especially egregious if I remember right.
