Star Signs as Game Makers

Sorry this is silly and deviates a bit from the usual tone of this blog. But sometimes being silly might be the gateway for understanding things, so, here goes. This has been a Twitter thread, bringing it here for good measure. Please don’t take it too seriously.

Aries

Who needs a design document? Let’s just make the damn thing already!

Taurus

Sorry, can’t talk, deadline is tomorrow and I’m like in the flow now.

Gemini

Oh, I’m working on seven different games right now. I think I’m starting a new one, though.

Cancer

PLEASE HELP ME THIS PROJECT IS A MESS! People will know I’m TERRIBLE at making games!

Leo

Hey team, please finish the game for me as I dress up for my 236534786th award ceremony!

Virgo

Everything is in this extensive color coded spreadsheet. Basically, the whole game. It already works.

Libra

Look how elegant my game mechanics are. They work in beautiful harmony with my aesthetic. I’m such a pro.

Scorpio

We need those characters today! Have the bugs been fixed? WHY DO I HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING HERE?

Sagittarius

This is a great adventure! We’re learning so much! Can we deliver this in two weeks?

Capricorn

Look, this thing is great but I’m here for the money, really. We could have shipped this last week. Why is it not out yet?

Aquarius

The game is great, everyone loves it. So I’m changing the whole design now. I’m bored.

Pisces

Hey team! I love you all! Also, I baked cake! Are you feeling good today?
