The earliest broadcast is titled "Notch: Creator of Minecraft," from August 2011. Minecraft was released in 2009. So those videos aren't really evidence one way or the other in regards to what I'm saying: people who do big solo projects don't seem to play many games during the time they're hammering out features. And while Notch's LD sprints are impressive, he hasn't really shipped a big project since Minecraft.

Whoops, I just noticed I phrased my original comment like "I wonder how many games Notch plays" (present tense) which is exactly what you showed. I meant to phrase it in past tense. Sorry, that was my bad.
