Okay right!

I have been learning how to code for games since march, i barely call myself a bedroom developer, I enjoy the process, the logic and the design and seeing all those elements pull together.

I find it really hard to understand how some of you out there managed to pull off what you have in the same time it took me to realise i was chewing more than my mouth could handle and draw a “settle here” line just to make it on time.

So i thought, since i’m new to the … community?  How about a little GTK (Get To Know) post ^^,  So yeah tell me a little about yourself, How long you have been indie dev’ing why you started, interests? any advice for those like me who are just starting out on what we all hope will be an enjoyable and painless time.

MY SNIPPET:
I started learning code after i had extinguished all potential out of the event system in RPGMAKERVXACE.  I enjoyed lacing events together, to create systems and managed to implement quite a few changes just by abusing this system.  I then realized how limited it was doing things this way and so decided to start learning ruby so i could alter the game “FROM THE SOURCE!!”.  I quickly realized that actually, i hated ruby.  So jumped into game maker studio and started learning C++ and C#, i found what i had learnt from RPG maker translated over … kinda.

Now i’m hoping to move on to different platforms, unity, things like that and hopefully continue learning code.  I like the logic behind code, the absoluteness it possesses,  I study Psychology at university in my spare time (haha) and its all basically here say, i like absolutes, i like answers which follow some form, and i think its that element which draws me to learning computer languages.

The process or decision to start making games is fueled by my love of playing them.

Sorry for the long post, Comment if you feel like sharing a little about yourself.

As for those who entered Ludum 31, Seriously everyone well done!!
