Fyi he's already quit teaching, had done so before the game was released, and said he can't really see how he could not go back to making games of some form.

Lol at him burning bridges in his swan song talking about how poo poo game publishers are

I liked food court obviously but you can tell that some of these are back burner ideas that never made it a full game. Chip wizard in particular is really susceptible to mind numbing brute forcing and the flesh one idk didn't click with me with that time travelling cell autonoma setup.

Do you have a source for that? I couldn't find one about him quitting teaching already.

To be fair I am an Actual Programmer and things like sorting a list using only a FIFO stack is such bullshit, and my online circles of other Actual Programmers tend to agree. Much harder than the job lol

exapunks has the coolest presentation of the Actual Programming ones imo, followed by shenzen which is no joke slightly traumatic in terms of dealing with bad bosses and foreign datashets for parts, and then tis-100 has the least interesting presentation imo but it's not bad still

As a non-programmer the actual-programming ones didn't hold any immediate appeal for me, but once I started one I realised it wasn't too different from the spatial games. And I even managed to get a couple of solutions on to the global leaderboard.

the same relation holds true in real life btw between excel and Real Programming
