When I started programming, my whole day revolved around development. I’d wake up, write code, and go to sleep. And that’s how it was day in and day out. My entire social circle consisted of people who also wrote code. I studied frameworks, libraries, and various programming languages.
Programming is not an art. The output of an artistic process is art.
Do you think that even holds true for indy games with solo developers, like Stardew Valley, Braid, or Undertale?
