CNN/Money have an article up in its collumn about the current situation with John Carmack's (Lead programmer / founder of id Software) family, video game engine coding, and Armidillo space engine project -- also revealing that Carmack's days of coding renderers and working on games aren't too far from over. Here's a quick slice:
"Chief among those things are building orbital rocket ships and working on id's next game. Lately, though, he's found his interest in rocket ships surpassing his interest in coding video games. He's definitely on board for one more title, but Carmack's future as a video game programmer is growing increasingly hazy.
"I wouldn't hazard to look too far ahead," he said. "I'm definitely going to see through this round of rendering work. I wouldn't make any promises beyond that." I highly recommend checking out the full article as it's a very good read [IMO].
