Its definitely a bad idea writing new code that builds up on your old code, that has not been tested properly, because you quickly have to start debugging multiple layer is code at once.

    Opposing opinion: If it’s legacy code, and no-one has found a bug yet, it works as intended.

    No, I don’t mean that ironically.

      It’s refreshing to see someone on social media who doesn’t dismiss code as “outdated” just because of its age.

    Should I finally write a game for my game engine?

    Should I test its existing functionalities?

    No, it’s time to add a physics subsystem (which I’ll be needing for some of the games anyways).
