Hi all,<\/p>\n
A couple of months ago, I finally decided to create my own video games! \u00a0Since I was a little boy I’ve always dreamed of making my own game. \u00a0Video Games saved me from many bad influences growing up, so I hold it near and dear to my heart. \u00a0I graduated in 2010 with a CS\/Comp E degree and since then I’ve been getting other things together with my life. \u00a0The past 3 years all I’ve written in is mostly SQL with a little bit of java but nothing crazy. \u00a0I wish I started this journey while I was in college or immediately after, but better late than never, right?<\/p>\n
I’m still learning tons, mainly researching and reading a lot, and I started by doing C++ tutorials using SDL. So far it’s been extremely fun but haven’t done much other than a pong clone but I’m working on a puzzle game (after I learn\/convert to SDL 2.0). \u00a0I’m skeptical I’ll be able to get a complete game or that it’ll be good, but I’m going to try my hardest and have fun!<\/p>\n
