I think what made it so easy was mostly because it was 2D, but more important than that, it was 2D vectors. I did a few Flash games myself when I was young, it was amazing, so quick to achieve a result. A decade later I tried doing the same

I'm pretty sure they'll expect a tiny bit of QA over an FPGA before fabbing them. I don't think they care much about what comes out of it though, whether it's "bugged open-source designs" or not, for sure they
