I don't really understand how this game isn't going to be broken immediately and only programmers will be able to play it.
Like day 1 some programmer is just gonna roll in with a large automated fleet of ships running on these computers.

So that fleet can potentially form a hivemind of sorts. Also, hacking others' ships, viruses, coordinated attacks and all that. Isn't that awesome?
- blvr 15y agoDepends on gameplay, but I can see non-programmers playing. In the beginning they might not have to use much code at all. When they've advanced a bit they might just use code copy-pasted from the Web. At the intermediate stage maybe they need something a little more advanced, so they go to a website where you can buy pre-written programs. Then maybe they rise to a level where they can afford to pay someone to write some custom code for them, so they do so and improve their operations by x%. But all that depends on how the rest of the game works. At the moment all we know is that the game involves space ships and assemblers.
