Hidey ho!
My name is Carlos Abdu, aspiring illustrator, cartoonist, video editor, writer and as of this writing, aspiring game designer.
I'm a lifelong gamer who always wanted to be part of the game creation process. However, when I was young, I looked into what a game programmer and I was intimidated by the prospect of having to do a lot of math...I really don't like math...
So pursued other creative careers such as art and writing into college. Now I'm at a crossroads in my life and I wonder if my childhood fear has repelled from a path that I would have prospered in. My first step to rectify is to study coding. In my decision to study coding to learn about web design and programming, I said to myself:
“why not take it one step further?”
So here I am, ready to learn how to make games. I have very little experience in coding or game design, can do a bit of animation and the only thing I have in confidence is my ability to draw (and open up my big mouth). But what I lack in experience I will make up in ambition, hard-work and love for my projects. I look forward to being part of this course and seeing what games we can all make together.
