  • I’m gonna say this and it’s gonna sound harsh but it’s not meant to be: You need therapy. Therapy saves lives and it’s way easier to speak to a stranger about things that make you feel guilty like this. Admitting you need help is the first step, getting the help, the second, doing the work the third. And I’m gonna be honest, it’s gonna suck, it’s not gonna be easy but it’s gonna make things better and you’re gonna grow through it.














  • Yeah that’s the first thing that can make it confusing but my specialty is core gameplay on AAA games so it usually goes something like this:

    • Oh so you draw the characters? No I don’t really draw, those are artists. I help make the characters move though.
    • Oh so you animate them? Er not really, those are animators, I help with the logic
    • Oh so you’re a programmer? No, I do use scripting languages but I’m no programmer … and so on…

    I usually end up saying something like that if you were to make a board game, you would need an artist to draw up the assets and a game designer to make up the rules and they both work together so that’s basically what I do but on a larger team and in a more micro scale.
