"Let's walk through the fun things that I do with my day. First, let's talk about programming. I write code for the game logic and the tools. Tools? You thought that we were making a game here -- not some Windows app full of buttons, sliders and graphs? Yeah, you see, a couple years ago game programmers got clever. We stopped writing hard-coded tables that define how everything works in the game, and we started making programs to create and read this data for us. Now, we hand these tools over to the artists and designers. We let them adjust the Shock Blade's damage, the timing of the Hellmeat's melee attack and how the Orbile bursts into chunks when it dies. We also write the logic in the game that uses all of this data to help draw and simulate stuff: monsters inform their buddies when you hurt them, some missiles can bounce, and electricity damage will stun a monster."
