I'm back, catching up your posts. It's a huge different than last time 2D adventures. I kinda feel a little bit of a sadness, and a bunch of truth from this log.

Everyone CAN be a game developer, but not everyone wants to be a game developer. I recon I am one of the latter, looking at my quality of basic C, and I did some developing work making scripts on financial trading platform, some had some pretty significant success and was once an active forum member in the same industries. When looking at your first video and be the fourth person to hit the like button, I told myself I CAN be a game developer.

But as you say, it's not for everyone. I guess sometimes people are just blind sided, childishly thinking all they gotta do is put in a few lines and a magical crazy game will appear. Often the tiniest little detail like you mentioned, where to find that button is very frustrating. Not that people from the outside of the programming world will understand how little progress it is when you hit a bottleneck, or trying to put a new logic to the super gun you've just developed in the game that kills only when the opponent sneeze.

Now it's clear. I like to play games, I "thought" I wanna be a game developer because I wish to see the logic behind the game. I wish I can be a game developer, so I can make a killer game that everybody enjoy it, but I forgot to think, if I am the game developer, first I gotta enjoy making it.
