Why did you create the Artemis Entity system framework ?

It was clearly for academic purposes, even though I was not in academy at the time.

But I wanted to fully understand how "things" were dealt with in games. I knew everything was a "entity", but did not know much more. Adam Martin helped me understand a lot of things and I decided to make a functional implementation.

Entity component system should be called Associative Entity System, because all components are associative in nature, thus entities are merely associative.

Why did you wait 3 months to answer the first question?
