    What a bunch of elitist horseshit.

    As a senior engine developer at a games company, this is how I see it:

    1. Your shitty flappy bird clone is worth less than the cheeto stain on your t-shirt as a cultural artifact
    2. I have met countless programmers who have never finished a single game, because they can’t design for shit
    3. I have met countless artists and level designers who have made commercially successful games after learning how to use 10% of a single scripting language
    4. The word “developer” predates software engineering and has nothing to with tech. We changed the meaning and now 14 year olds on reddit have changed it back. It doesn’t matter.
    5. If you were really some hot shit solo developer you would not need to look for validation in your job title. Seeing thousands of people enjoy something you designed every day would be enough.
