artima - Programming is Gardening, not Engineering

To the "code = engineering" point, I like the analogy that it is much closer to gardening instead.

This idea comes from regular software dev., that it's such an organic process that you can't treat it like engineering. In game dev this is just 10x more so the case

It used to be that simple in Unity, but it was horribly inperformant while TMP, a 3rd party plugin, was much better. So Unity acquires TMP and instead of properly integrating it to the engine, it just makes it an almost required external plugin that you have to import and configure to work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm struggling with it right now. The stupid fonts aren't rendering properly when building from GameCI, everything else is working perfectly...

Not to mention the store cut (e.g. 30% on Steam). A donation website does make a lot more sense for supporting the dev.
