I Don't Need Math! I'll Just Make Videogames When I Grow Up!

Ah, the fantasy world where game development is just a few magical method calls! If only .ForEachBug(Bug::AutoFix) existed in real life instead of the 3 AM debugging sessions where you question your career choices. And that .GetWishlists(target: 7000) method? Pure delusion. Real gamedevs know that getting 7 wishlists already feels like winning the lottery, let alone 7000. The only accurate part is game.Release() - which is indeed followed by immediate regret, panic, and the discovery of 47 new bugs your QA team somehow missed.

OMG, someone actually created a programming language to write code for Scratch - you know, that block-based programming tool designed for CHILDREN! 💀 The absolute AUDACITY of creating a text-based compiler with Rust that outputs to Scratch! It's like building a rocket ship to drive to your mailbox! They even had the nerve to add GitHub Copilot support and error detection like it's some kind of serious development environment! Just look at that gorgeous code at the bottom - writing actual text to generate those cute little colorful blocks with the cat mascot. It's the programming equivalent of using a sledgehammer to hang a picture frame! I'm DYING! 😭

The circle of tech life continues. Nintendo's 3DS died in 2024, only for Samsung to resurrect the glasses-free 3D concept a year later with their fancy Odyssey monitor. Ten years of developers avoiding 3D like the plague, and now we're supposed to believe it's revolutionary again? Watch us waste another decade optimizing for a feature nobody asked for while our actual code still runs on duct tape and prayers.

Ah, the modern game industry in a nutshell! While graphics get the champagne shower celebration, actual gameplay mechanics are standing in line like they're waiting for the world's most disappointing theme park ride. This is basically every AAA game studio meeting: "How's the ray tracing coming along?" *pops champagne* "What about the story?" "Yeah Bob's working on it... I think." The same energy as when your PM asks about code quality while frantically pushing that shiny new feature to production. Who needs proper error handling when you've got lens flares, am I right?

The ultimate recursive procrastination loop! This starterpack brutally exposes the indie game dev lifecycle with surgical precision. Instead of actually coding their game, devs spend countless hours making elaborate docs about worldbuilding, obsessing over engine choices, refreshing wishlists for dopamine hits, and watching YouTube tutorials they'll never implement. The "just write a book guy" with 50+ Google Docs but zero engine experience is painfully accurate. And that "thinking about a name for 2 months" hit way too close to home. Meanwhile, the "backseat dev" who thinks every problem is solved with "just add a shader" or "just add multiplayer" exists in every Discord server known to mankind. The imposter syndrome is real—nobody understands how much work goes into making a game until they've stared blankly at their code at 3AM wondering why their character controller is suddenly launching their protagonist into the stratosphere. And of course, there's always that one dev who buys every asset pack but never ships anything. The irony? Creating this starterpack was itself a form of procrastination. Meta-procrastination at its finest!

The escalating terror of computer components at 100% utilization is painfully accurate. GPU and CPU maxed out? Mildly concerning but whatever. Disk at 100%? Now we're entering horror territory. RAM maxed? Pure dread as your system crawls to a halt. But VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) at 100%? That's straight-up "prepare for your hardware funeral" territory. Nothing says "I should have bought a better power supply" like the smell of burning electronics and the sight of your precious gaming rig becoming a very expensive paperweight. The progression from "this is fine" to "call the fire department" has never been more accurately depicted.
