You can think of it like baking. To make bread (the game) you need to put all the ingredients like water, flour, salt, sugar, and yeast together in a bowl (code, art assets, audio, design variables, VFX scripts, various plugins, etc). Individually these ingredients take up a lot of room on your kitchen counter and your hands can only work so fast. Once you assemble everything together and make dough then baked it, you’ve effectively complied and “rendered”all the ingredients together to create something more portable, smaller, and digestible. This is the game.
You generally need more space and equipment (tech capabilities) to make something that can be eaten with just your hands.
