What's the correlation between programming skill and video game design skill? It's probably not 0 but certainly well under 1. We want good video game design

What's the correlation between programming skill and video game design skill? It's probably not 0 but certainly well under 1. We want good video game designers making games, not just good programmers.
I get the feeling that Balatro is not a well coded game. It was coded by one person. Yet it's a great game. The world will be better with more Balatro's.
- techpineapple 2y agoI assert we get less Balatro’s this way(I don’t know Balatro specifically, but I imagine it’s a stand-in for indie-game by one developer), perhaps counter intuitively. This is a question I’ve been pondering post-2000, where are all the new Kevin Smiths? Where are all the great counter-culture indie movies? That Market has certainly not exploded post YouTube the way you might think.
