| Video Discription | Enjoy a look back at my Game Dev Journey, from childhood, through College and University, to today, and all the struggles along the way. Check out all my game dev projects and experiments here: https://retrobreak.itch.io/ In this video, I share my personal journey through the highs and lows of game development, from early childhood dreams to facing reality as an adult. Part 1 - The Early Years (School): Check out my childhood game ideas, including the “Spot Slimes,” and my early experiments with game creation tools like PowerPoint, Flash MX, and 3D Game Maker. See how my early inspirations influenced my dreams. Part 2 - Is This My Future? (College): Hear about my college experience, the initial excitement of seeing a Game Maker platformer demo, and the disappointments that followed. I talk about struggles with 3D modeling, programming, and finding unexpected joy in photography and creative writing. Part 3 - Reality Hits (Uni): Follow my transition from failed programming courses to switching to design and directing. My final year project was a highlight, but the path was challenging. I discuss level design, programming in Unreal and Unity, and experimenting with RPG Maker. Part 4 - Into The Real World (Work / Side Projects): Explore my journey into the professional world, including office work and side projects like “Super Donuts.” Learn about the realities of working on prototypes and balancing passion with practicalities. Part 5 - What Do I Do Now? (SD Released, Covid / WFH): Watch how I struggled with game engines, programming, and burnout. Despite releasing “Super Donuts” and working from home, I faced challenges with anxiety and decision paralysis. See how I navigated these obstacles and sought new creative outlets.
