>One day this February, I just got up at 2am and started writing code. I was tired of waiting. So I wrote and wrote and wrote.
That's cool. It makes me feel happy reading this, kind of inspiring :)
>I found myself making an API for making game maker tools and a game engine and a game. It turns out I’m an API designer at heart. I guess I always kinda knew this.
I like hearing when someone finds their passion and goes for it full throttle.
Thanks.
I failed to capture the essenence of what my project is. The APIs are really what's exciting. But you can't see APIs, they're like the wind, you have to see them in action, through their side effects. I should have waited until I had made more things that show off how innovative these APIs are. I released it too soon.
A rule of thumb is that if you're not embarrassed, you released too late. Human tendency is to want to dot every i and cross every t, but too often that leads to never releasing. I appreciate that you released when you did. It's looks great!
Nope. Sooner is better than the alternative in nearly every case! Also take HN feedback with a grain of salt …
