Welcome
Hello and Welcome,
Well this here is my first blog and hopefully not the last.
The aim here is to post on my thoughts and progress in becoming firstly an hobbyist games developer. Hopefully in the future moving across to indie developer and making a small amount of pocket change from this hobby.
The hardest thing I have found so far is trying to fit in time to actually pursue this hobby. Work gets in the way, social activities get in the way, TV gets in the way (it shouldn’t, but I’m weak) and playing games, rather than developing them gets in the way…..
…. simply, life has too many distractions, so the plan is that from 1st of January I will make a new resolution to actually work on and complete some games.
The first thing to note is that I started the process two years ago by working in C++, got distracted by Java (mobile content), managing to produce some content for the main web site, and now I am looking at the Torque Game Builder.
Hopefully working with TGB will allow me to produce games at a quicker pace, but we shall see. My first product using TGB will be a Pacman clone which I have started.
So keep your eyes peeled and hopefully I will publish more news soon, as well as some thoughts on the process as I go along.
Bye for now,
Taz
