Solo developer issues 'hard mode' game-making challenge

Original: HARD MODE, don't build a game in any language, make your language and then build the game. Same for sprites and sounds e

A game developer has proposed a self-imposed extreme challenge for game creation: build everything from scratch, including inventing your own programming language, writing your own image editor for sprites, and creating your own tools for sounds before making the game itself. The idea, tagged under gamedev and compilerdev topics and explicitly excluding AI assistance, is drawing attention among indie and solo game developers who enjoy discussing programming craftsmanship.

Why now: It appeals to programmers and indie game developers who enjoy extreme DIY coding challenges and discussions about building software from scratch.
