I have a game idea. (edit: Postponed for a few years.)

Yes. And mmog's are still not simple. I'm sure he can program simple game, but I doubt he would be able to program something as massive as an mmog, even if he worked on it for years.

Being an embedded programmer is very different to being a game programmer.

He's not an embedded programmer
goddamit guys
middleware is different from embedded programmer

It's not so much a question of whether he can program the game (we all know he can), it's a matter if he can make the game he programs worth playing. People that don't play games generally don't know what gamers look for in a game (subtle or otherwise), regardless of how informed they are.

He used to play games
He beat Doom
And the whole Super Mario

Can you stop discussing my dad's abilities and worry about the game.
My dad WILL be able to do this. I live with him, I know him better than you guys.
When programmers learn to program, they don't only learn to do one thing, but just general language, not just one specific topic.
My dad not only knows how to program at his work, he knows how to code other stuff.

It is relevant to estimate whether this will ever happen. And from the looks of it, you don't know anything about this stuff, this causing you to be a bad estimator.

Also very different from game programmer.

smart =/= agrees with you

[Thorax]

He used to play games
He beat Doom
And the whole Super Mario

Played games =/= gamer

I'm waiting to see the outcome (and would like to ask your dad questions on FormSpring), but I have little hope for this project.

smart =/= agrees with you
really smart = agrees with you

can you like stop derailing this topic and worry about the game?
This game IS being made, no matter how much you troll about my dad.
If you don't like this, than I might as well lock this topic and work in with my dad in privacy.

[Mr. Jelly]

Also which logo did you pick
Here are my final entries, take 'em or leave 'em
