summary

Claims that game teams deliberately tolerate inefficiency because art assets are binary assets that break Git merges, so workflows use Subversion, giant branches and Excel five years ahead planning with fancy colors instead of Trello. Demonstrates a Java-made demo that "isn't a game" and argues game AI is deliberately imperfect — AI tuned to be imperfect — producing buggy emergent behavior that can surprise players and even teach ideas via chaos theory.
