yeah, and stupid people act stupid. People on this site have a nasty habit of responding to original work with derision and scorn more than praise and appreciation, especially when its good. But that goes for the whole wild internets, does it not? I've sometimes felt programming is more fun if you don't share the games.
Umm to clear at least one thing up is that i did not even see the post with the word construct in it, that argument is just silly. The reason why those topics were locked is that they went off topic for pages and pages with 1 or 2 normal posts in between. Not a good thing

Agreed. I've got tons of stuff I've made for my own amusement that will never see the light of day. It's more fun that way!

I disagree. I rarely ever show any of my work, but I love to see what people think of it. Getting positive feedback is really quite encouraging and gives a good feeling.

I think you missed the part where I said that they were made for my OWN amusement. Most of the stuff I would consider to be unplayable, due to horrible gfx, poor controls, etc etc.
I don't really get much out of "releasing" my stuff. Making it and showing pieces to good friends is what does it for me, like before I even had internet. It's just like my music, I'm almost done recording my album but I don't think I will release it to the public, just give to family and friends. I don't give a shit what the rest of the world thinks. That makes adding my games here almost a selfless act
