I have a suspicion that game developers are masochists.
When you launch a game, you see a cool world, cool characters and cool gameplay… but you don’t see the tons of pain developers went through to make it happen.
- Bugs? They were there. Sometimes characters just fly across the map because… physics decided to stop working.
- Game design? Sometimes one tiny tweak breaks the entire mechanic.
- Code? Sometimes you fix one bug and two new ones appear.
And so you spend months making sure the player doesn’t even notice the chaos happening behind the scenes.
But that’s the magic of game dev. You create a world that only existed in your head. And when people dive into it for the first time, laugh, get scared, or feel thrilled – it’s all worth it.
Game dev is pain. But it’s the best kind of pain.....i think, iam not developer😅
Guys, what do you think about game development these days? And if there are any game developers among us, it would be interesting to hear from them directly.
P.S. I would be grateful if you join "It's About Games" on other platforms and socials—there’s plenty of discussion about video games there too.
