  1. it's so great to now have the VVVVVV source code to point to when talking about how game design is a separate skill from programming skill, and how game design skill can be so much more important (even if they're also the person doing the coding)

      I can get stuck trying to optimise my code and make it clean and reusable and comprehensible and all that junk. And it's a good thing to know how to do. But it's important to not get distracted from the important things.

        also: I watched the AGDQ VVVVVV speedrun last night, and I think I had forgotten how good and strange the game is. The crying elephant remains an inspiration to me.
