Can You Also Please Resolve Them
That brief moment of professional pride when you squash a bug, immediately shattered by the client's "While you're at it..." speech. Fixing one issue is like putting a band-aid on the Titanic - there's always an iceberg of three more critical bugs lurking beneath the surface. The client's timing is impeccable too, waiting until you've mentally closed the ticket and started daydreaming about that coffee break you'll never get.

When One More Feature Breaks The Universe
Ah, feature creep—the silent killer of elegant architecture. What started as a beautiful, simple interchange suddenly turns into the LA freeway system from hell because some product manager said "wouldn't it be cool if we added just one more thing?" The best part? That "one more thing" breaks twelve other things you didn't even know were connected. Welcome to maintenance hell, population: you.

Just One Little Feature...

Just One Little Feature...
The classic "scope creep" nightmare in its purest form! That eager indie dev is *this close* to shipping on schedule when suddenly that innocent little feature request sneaks up behind them. "Just a tiny change," it whispers, while secretly requiring a complete engine rewrite, asset overhaul, and questioning every life decision that led to this career. The sweat drop says it all - they know they're about to kiss that release date goodbye, but they'll still say "yeah, I can add that real quick" because apparently devs never learn.

Refactor Everything All The Time

Refactor Everything All The Time
The eternal cycle of software development in its natural habitat! The developer beaver is absolutely buzzing with grand visions of refactoring everything—microservices! Clean architecture! Design patterns galore! Meanwhile, the poor Project Manager beaver is desperately trying to maintain sanity as their developer colleague embarks on yet another quest to rewrite perfectly functional code. That wide-eyed, slightly unhinged look in the last panel? That's the face of a developer who's about to turn a 3-line fix into a 3-week refactoring spree. The PM's exhausted plea hits home for anyone who's ever watched a simple task morph into "let's just rewrite the entire codebase real quick."

The Road To Code Hell Is Paved With "Just One More Feature"
Ah, the classic "just add one more feature" nightmare. The top shows a neat, organized highway interchange that handles traffic efficiently. The bottom? That's what happens when management says "it's just one tiny addition" to your beautifully architected system. This is why senior devs twitch uncontrollably when they hear "can we just add this small thing?" That 1001st requirement is never just appending a line of code—it's rebuilding the entire spaghetti junction while traffic is still flowing. And somehow you're expected to maintain both monstrosities without documentation. Just like real infrastructure, nobody appreciates good code until they're stuck in the traffic jam of technical debt.

Scope Creep Experience

Scope Creep Experience
Started with "let's make a simple Pac-Man clone" and ended up building the next Skyrim. The eternal curse of the hobby developer - your brain whispers "just one more feature" until your weekend project needs its own Jira board and development team. The graveyard of GitHub is littered with these ambitious skeletons of what was supposed to be "just a small side project."

The Game Dev Reality Pie Chart
Ah, the classic game dev fantasy chart. That massive orange slice is basically my hard drive of "revolutionary game ideas" collecting digital dust since 2014. The actual coding? Just enough to remember why I hate debugging. And that tiny red sliver for playtesting? That's what we call "clicking the start button twice before giving up and daydreaming about more features we'll never implement." Honestly, this chart is missing the 40% wedge for "watching YouTube tutorials that make you feel productive without writing a single line of code."

Graphics Get The Party, Gameplay Gets The Queue
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 Circle Of Developer Life
The eternal dev cycle in its purest form: "Fixed bugs. Added more bugs to fix later." Nothing captures the essence of programming quite like solving one problem while simultaneously creating your next week's workload. It's like a self-sustaining ecosystem of job security! The best part is the 4.9 star rating—proof that users have no idea what horrors lurk beneath that minimalist interface. This is basically every GitHub commit message if developers were actually honest.

How Does It Keep Happening
You start with a simple task. Just need a random number. Three hours later, you've accidentally created a cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generator with entropy harvesting and statistical validation. The blank stare in the mirror is your soul leaving your body as you realize you've done it again. C programming has this magical ability to turn "I'll just write 5 lines of code" into "I've reinvented an entire subsystem from scratch." The worst part? You'll do it again next week.

The Constant Battle Between Original Design And Inspiration
That moment when you've designed a perfectly functional game loop but your brain whispers, "What if we made it exactly like Elden Ring?" The eternal battle between creating something original versus cloning your favorite games. The road to development hell is paved with "inspiration" that turns into feature creep. Pro tip: write down your cool gameplay ideas, sleep on them, then decide if they're actually good or just your brain trying to recreate Dark Souls for the 47th time.

Especially If It's Not Your Code
OH. MY. GOD. The sheer AUDACITY of adding ONE MORE FEATURE to code that's already a tangled nightmare of spaghetti highways! 💀 That simple little "1001st thing" transforms your beautiful intersection into an absolute HELLSCAPE of confusion! And honey, when it's someone else's code? You might as well throw your computer out the window and change careers! That one tiny requirement is the difference between sanity and needing therapy for the next six months! The mental breakdown is not a possibility—it's SCHEDULED!
