MarsChompsVenus is an aspiring indie game dev who creates a variety of projects. He sometimes collaborates with friends such as @Code_Forge on projects, such as the GDevelop Game Jams.

While in his programming journey, MarsChompsVenus has developed many games. Some good, many bad. Over 200 games have not made it through the development process in the 2 years spent on Scratch alone. Countless other games have been thought of but then abandoned. He encourages you to continue programming or creating, regardless of the outcome. Everything created is unique, and, even when considered a failure, still helps to develop whatever skill used to produce them.

Whether it be programming, art, music, or any other skill, regardless of what prevalence it has to software development, it can be developed with experience, practice, and more importantly, time.

At the center of this quietly dismal world rests the egg—an object of immaculate, almost infuriating refinement. Its surface is impossibly smooth, a flawless, silken sheen that seems less like a natural shell and more like something delicately engineered for admiration. Light drifts across it in soft, controlled gradients, never harsh, never imperfect, as though even illumination itself has been disciplined into elegance. It is neither ostentatious nor humble; it simply is—complete, composed, and entirely out of place.

You are a farmer, practical and worn by routine, standing in stark contrast to this delicate absurdity. Behind you, secured with excessive care, lies a brick of gold—heavy, real, and ultimately unfulfilling. Its presence should matter more than this egg. It does not.

A narrator lingers, unhelpful and persistent, offering dry observations that do little but underline the futility of it all. The world itself feels muted, resistant to satisfaction. Effort yields little, ownership means less, and even beauty—especially beauty—feels faintly hollow.

And yet, the egg remains.

Perfect. Silky. Pointless.

Something to pursue, despite everything.
