I don't really care much about this project one way or the other.
Even so, it is extremely frustrating to see someone put in THIS level of effort (As a university project! From someone who is primarily a coder!)... to then be taken down by 30-seconds worth of smug quips from some nobody on a discussion board.
I am reminded of when the last round of Star Trek movies started up a decade ago. How the phrase "lens flare" quickly became an Internet meme. It's not that the effect was that over-used, and it certainly isn't that ANY of the Internet film geeks commenting on it will ever accomplish 1% of J.J. Abrams' life work. It was just a way of signaling to others, "I know some basic industry jargon. So I may not be on his level, but I'm slightly above YOUR level. Look up to me."
I dunno. I have approximately 1000x more respect for this guy's "frosted glass" and "2010's design language" than I do for you. Talk is cheap, he shipped.
