"Designing an OS is like creating your own world"
Making video game is also like creating your own world!
And it's order of magnitude less hard than making an OS...
Bonus point, you have a chance to make a living from it!
- nullbyte808 2y agoactually making a video game would be 100x more complicated. Plus kernel developer jobs are more lucrative than most game dev jobs.
- jb_briant 2y agoIs it really more complicated to make a video game that a kernel? I don't consider myself knowledgeable enough to make a full kernel by myself but I did manage to make a full 3d video game by myself. Also I'm not speaking about making a game engine along with the game. Having a kernel dev job is different than making your own kernel, speaking on a "world builder" perspective.
