@VD15 Why were you planning to do that? That's so much work.

@matrix Because I couldn’t get on to the game development module so I did the next best thing.

@VD15 Are you gonna try convincing them or are you gonna do something else?

@matrix I’m already two months into the damn thing. It’s building on like three years of trying to make a game engine, so this is basically my ‘fuck you’ to the world at this point.

@VD15 Yeah, you shouldn't have to throw away three years worth of work just to appease some guy
