May 18, 2020 — Just an anecdotal piece of what it means to be an independent game developer. Every developer, of course, has their own story to tell, and here’s mine. When I was younger, I always felt a strong urge to create. I knew in my heart that I wanted to work in games, but I had no idea how to realize my life dream.
