| Introduction | I am a Indie Game Developer with two games published.
I'm very proud of my accomplishments and I'm living proof that you CAN accomplish anything you set your mind to. You just have to believe in yourself and don't give up. When I got a hold of my first console, the Atari, it was not just capable of playing games, but it also had the ability to let you build and run programs, in BASIC. I played Pitfall and from that point on I knew this is what I wanted to do. From that point on I pushed myself to learn how to program, however it wasn't until attending college and majoring in Simulation and Game Development (maintained a 4.0 GPA <-- another thing I'm proud of, because I did terrible in High School) that I gained the remaining tools that I would need to complete my arsenal. I founded my studio in October of 2010. Armed with a small chunk of funds out of my pocket and securing a few private investors. I set out to do what I've always dreamed of doing, making a game! You can't give up, if you find your passion in life, you owe it to yourself to seek it out relentlessly and accomplish it! |
