Shoutout to my kid's puzzle game for showing me a better way to handle coding errors

I always saw bugs as a pain, but now I find them fun to fix like a game.

Ever try to turn a boring chore into a game to get it done? I totally do that with laundry, racing against the timer on the machine. Makes you wonder what else we could gamify, right?

That puzzle game mindset really changes things.

Think about when making games out of chores hides what really matters. You beat the laundry timer, but miss out on relaxing or thinking time. Sometimes just doing the thing is better than scoring points.
