I know you're being sarcastic, but I couldn't help but laugh because this is how the world sees all software engineering. A bunch of project managers and business guys get in a room and think they've done all the hard work when they think of some vague overarching idea. They think software just has to "code it up real quick" and it'll be done...

Ugh.

Yeah, coming up with the game concepts is the easy part. Much harder is the actual coding that goes into making the ideas come to life.

But there are so many more tasks involved in making a game than just coming up with concepts and coding. Personally, I think the hardest part is designing the game's rules.

That's probably true. When I said "hardest," I really meant "most time-consuming." While designing rules is definitely very hard, coding the game takes much more time.
