Some roguelike developers and solo game developers in general are notorious for writing code like this. The developer of Ultima Ratio Regum (http://www.ultimaratioregum.co.uk/game/) bragged on Roguelike Radio podcast about how his code base is difficult to deal with because it's a 500K LOC single Python file... He claims it's because he doesn't have a CS background but in practice most developers learn these practices in the industry, academic code is also known for being bad. There's definitely a proud ignorance to this style of programming, he knows he should be doing something else but can't be bothered to take steps that might make him more productive. Not intangibles but basic things like keeping his text editor from locking up or running slow. |
