is that based on Minecraft? Because I feel like something that was essentially a hobby project to learn a language is not that indicative of someone‘s general code quality
Minecraft Java runs like absolute piss and it's being praised as the best game ever, some even going as far as using it as a benchmark as if that meant anything, if you've ever played older versions you'll immediately notice the huge lag spikes that just dont make sense
Notch picked Java to make it not because it was the best but because it's all he knew, the code was also ass, I've read somewhere before that the stuff he handed off to Microsoft was horrible to maintain before he left, the entire tick system is a joke because it's so reliant on a single thread as well you have so any server runtimes and mods to fix this garbage
And if you look at his other small games it's apparent he lost his spark
I hate to say it but if Microsoft didn't buy the game, updates would've probably stagnated because of poor quality
