Applicability

Use the Bytecode pattern when you have a lot of behavior you need to define and your games implementation language isnt a good fit because:

  • its too low-level, making it tedious or error-prone to program in.
  • iterating on it takes too long due to slow compile times or other tooling issues.
  • it has too much trust. If you want to ensure the behavior being defined cant break the game, you need to sandbox it from the rest of the codebase.
