I've been doing this one game project which I started around last december I think, and I just realized it has 4100 lines and it's far from an alpha release.
No it doesn't really have anything hard coded or any large pre-computed tables. Its 95% pure code.
Is this too big? Was I slow or fast getting this amount of lines in this amount of time?
How large projects do you guys have? |

| Oh and I like to add I've had a month or two of break, from developing this project |

| That's pretty slow, actually. |

Yeah It hasn't really been my number one priority, but It is the largest amount of lines I've ever done within a single project without losing motivation.
And its staggering how I've not lost control of the code, but I have it all in neat sections and modules |

After working on a project for 3 months, I had about 10k lines of coding. It all depends on what you're making though. I started another project and started it about december also, and it only has 1,290 lines of coding.

| A project is too big when you can't wrap you head around it anymore. |

"the script size doesnt matter!!!"
It's a better measure of project complexity than basically anything else you can easily work with. And it does matter. Once your project has enough LOC that you / someone else can no longer reasonably read through all the code in the project you have to deal with it quite differently. |

I guess it depends on the scale of your project, but I wouldn't really be concerned as long as you can still understand your project, it performs well, and does what it is intended to do. Scalability is always something I keep in mind, which also simplifies things and can reduce extra code.
The pace is up to you really. I can't really say if you're slow or not, but that doesn't really matter... I think I'm up to 1,318 total lines in my current project that I've been working on and off for the past 3 months, but I can go a week without touching it or work on it a week straight. |
