You probably never thought playing a video game could make you a better programmer, especially one as fun and ridiculous as Among Us, but you may be surprised how much you can learn from lying. In this video I explore how communication in social deduction games, like Among Us, teaches important communication skills you can use in your programming job. I also talk about how Among Us specifically parallels a programming career in more ways than one.
