Making a Game

Write a Blog post to reflect what have you learned about building a game that surprises you. How does it change the way you look at games you like to play?
Something that surprises me his the amount of code used to program the game. It wasn't that much. I would think that there would be more code to make something follow another object. One thing that I thought while doing this was what who designed the code? I guess that it would the people that made Adobe Flash. Oh well, I guess that that isn't important.
