Hotshot	I guess this one going be interesting. When I saw "should I learn DirectX? Topic" and Gabriel ask chwaga, What's Your ultimate goal? and I thought that would be great idea to ask people this What's Your ultimate goal in Programming? p.s. I think Gabreil should take great credits for what he said

Mog	ROBOT ULTRA MASTER RACE! KILL ALL HUMANS! Err.. Ultimate goal? I'm keeping it open... If I reached my pinnacle, I'd go insane and hate it. So, Nothing is my goal, I just want to make stuff. -=-=- I am Busy Mongoose - My Website Dev PC: AMD 8150-FX, 16gb Ram, GeForce GTX 680 2gb Current Project: Pyroxene

Scherererer	I'm not really sure to be honest.. I suppose one of my goals is to finish and sell something. But in all reality, I'm not even sure that this is what I want to be doing with the rest of my life as a carreer. Decisions, decisions... -=-=- YouTube Twitter Computer Science Series: Logic (pt1) (part 2) (part 3) 2's Complement Mathematics: Basic Differential Calculus

HoboBen	Firstly I'd say fun, but also because I can actually write things that I find useful and that help me (and by extension, stuff that could also help/entertain other people) I guess there's also some "fame and glory" aspect of it, if I ever produce a game that becomes really popular. -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

shroom_monk	I have many goals, but not really at ultimate one... If I had one, I guess it would probably be to end up producing, on being on the production team for, something really big. Or fun. Or interesting. -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

Forklift_Fred	No goal here. It's just something I enjoy that I can play around with and occasionally make use of. Like others I suppose I should be aiming to finish something properly... Ultimately, what convinced me to pay for Blitz was the game I started years ago with my mate at college and the fact that I'd written a mediocre JavaScript version of it and returning to the original basic language would enable me to do a better job and build on it (expanding to 3D for instance). It turns out that the original language was Amos but there's little difference after 10s of not seeing it Ultimately, game wise, I intend to make a Forklift Fred game. Once I know enough to do it justice. So that must be the answer then -=-=- Come rain or shine...

OutOfRange	I'm on a computer games programming course, mainly because that's something I'd like to be doing job-wise. Long term ultimate goal would probably be to create something (game / series) that people talk about in the same that they do Final Fantasy, Halo etc (just without the blind loyality, I'd prefer it to be because the game was actually good). Short term ultimate goal... finish all my crappy coursework and get on to something I'm coding because I actually want to. -.-"

Jayenkai	Ultimate goal... I don't think I ever truely had an ultimate goal.. That's like asking an author, or an artist, or a musician what their ultimate goals are.. Sure, there's the whole Fame/fortune thing, but I'm only ever doing this for the overall fun of it, really. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

9572AD	I, OTOH, have always had an ultimate goal. Doubtful I'll ever realize it, but it lingers there. What is it? In Bill Budge's words, "Construction Set Construction Set." -=-=- All the raw, animal magnetism of a rutabaga.

Orion Pax	I think my ultimate goal would be to finish 1 game that I have thought of that lots of people would love and play and enjoy. To me its the thought of having 10000's of people having fun playing my game. Its the thought of someone else enjoying what I have made. An artist point of view I guess you could say. As I have always been an artist at heart. Just never really been creative enough until lately. Dont know where it came from but its here now. And I'm gonna rape it while I have it

Afr0	WRITE IN C (sung to The Beatles "Let it Be") When I find my code in tons of trouble, Friends and colleagues come to me, Speaking words of wisdom: "Write in C." As the deadline fast approaches, And bugs are all that I can see, Somewhere, someone whispers" "Write in C." Write in C, write in C, Write in C, write in C. LISP is dead and buried, Write in C. I used to write a lot of FORTRAN, for science it worked flawlessly. Try using it for graphics! Write in C. If you've just spent nearly 30 hours Debugging some assembly, Soon you will be glad to Write in C. Write in C, write in C, Write In C, yeah, write in C. Only wimps use BASIC. Write in C. Write in C, write in C, Write in C, oh, write in C. Pascal won't quite cut it. Write in C. Guitar Solo Write in C, write in C, Write in C, yeah, write in C. Don't even mention COBOL. Write in C. And when the screen is fuzzy, And the edior is bugging me. I'm sick of ones and zeroes. Write in C. A thousand people people swear that T.P. Seven is the one for me. I hate the word PROCEDURE, Write in C. Write in C, write in C, Write in C, yeah, write in C. PL1 is 80's, Write in C. Write in C, write in C, Write in C, yeah, write in C. The government loves ADA, Write in C. --v \|edit\| shrunkersized \|edit\| -=-=- Afr0 Games Project Dollhouse on Github - Please fork!
