   POLL: Do you like the coding or the game?
  I was curious what you enjoy more, the actual programming, or seeing your project complete and being able to play it, or possibly both. I guess this could relate to programming in general, but I felt a game would make the range a bit more extreme.   
  Well, since I never seem to finish a project and I continue doing it, I must love the programming. Someday I will finish a decent sized project and maybe then I can comment on how it feels...   ;  never seem to finish anything, but it's because i always get bored of programming halfway throughman i suck   ;  Some of both, I think; probably the greatest part is when others play it and say "That was really fun!" or somesuch, but certainly I like the problem solving/coding too.   ;  Programming. To date, i have no finished games (despite 4 years doing it).   ;  I like the coding and design, but I hate debug as well as am indeferent to actaully playing it.(I enjoy watching others playing it though)   ;Quote:Original post by AdamskiAirsoftI was curious what you enjoy more, the actual programming, or seeing your project complete and being able to play it, or possibly both.The actual programming. Creating something that you can see it yourself. I don't think I would enjoy playing my games as much because I know all about them (secret passages, cheat codes, and bosses).;  Ehhh...hard to say because I have only done small/little projects really.  I am working on my first big project, and I am loving just coding it very much.  So...I have to say coding it.Chad.   ;  Fun-list: Playing your game, designing, problems that are easy to fixNo-fun-list: problems that are hard to fix   ;  When I started out I only wanted to play my games, so I got so eager to finnish them that I produced extremly ugly code and that made it take even longer when I wanted to add something so I ended up with a lot of unfinnished projects.Now no matter what I'm programmig I refuse to code anything but the most elegant solution I can think of, no matter how much overkill it might be (say for a very small program) I always do it because I know that that's the only way I will keep my motivation. It's like maths; If you don't solve problems that are a challenge to you you will lose interest fast.So I'll say I like coding.
