Depends on the project. For this one I'm using Blockly to generate Javascript and put html stuff around it. I originally used Batari Basic for Atari games, and then most of the games I made were with Google Web Designer. I do remember you mentioned somewhere something about using Unity eventually, so is that still on the table or not anymore?
It’s hard to say. I appreciated the mix a lot.
I liked the C.S. Lewis shoutout, and I didn’t 100% follow the argument after - will have to come back and try again, but I resonate with the idea that our desire for something transcendant suggests that it might exist.
Also thanks for mentioning my game!!
You're welcome. I'll touch on the CS Lewis bit. So, CS Lewis' argument might have essentially been saying that a universe without meaning would be like a universe without light. He might have been making the point that like how a creature wouldn't be able to know there is light or even have a conception of it so too would a universe without meaning be like. It's in Mere Christianity if you want to where he talks about it (by the way that might have been one of the best arguments in the book, and it might have been better if he spent more time developing that than what he actually did). So, what I did was maybe try to make it more logically correct or something. According to the argument having even a conception of objective meaning would be enough to prove it, but it is possible that maybe he was making a false equivalence, so I might have tried to prove it in a logical way or something, but objectivity might be hard to establish, so I might have made an error or something. That said, as I mentioned at the end, even if I didn't prove certain things true, if the argument is correct and my conception of objective meaning or maybe even some other conception is correct then this might mean the idea that there is no objective meaning is an unfalsifiable and probabilistic position which while maybe not necessarily disproving it does make the position weaker. If you want the page reference to Mere Christianity or something, you can let me know.
I found the original quote, and maybe I took it a bit out of context. My argument might still work, but you can check it out, and you can tell me if I messed up on anything.
"My argument against God was that the universe seemed so cruel and unjust. But how had I got this idea of just and unjust? A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line. What was I comparing this universe with when I called it unjust? If the whole show was bad and senseless from A to Z, so to speak, why did I, who was supposed to be part of the show, find myself in such violent reaction against it? A man feels wet when he falls into water, because a man is not a water animal: a fish would not feel wet. Of course I could have given up my idea of justice by saying it was nothing but a private idea of my own. But if I did that, then my argument against God collapsed too—for the argument depended on saying that the world was really unjust, not simply that it did not happen to please my fancies. Thus in the very act of trying to prove that God did not exist—in other words, that the whole of reality was senseless—I found I was forced to assume that one part of reality—namely my idea of justice—was full of sense. Consequently atheism turns out to be too simple. If the whole universe has no meaning, we would have never found out that it has no meaning; just as, if there was no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we would never know it was dark. Dark would be a word without meaning."
If you think I took something out of context and should make an update, let me know including how to do it.
