About Me

Hello beautiful people, If you didn’t know, my name is Peter and I have been studying a bachelor of game development for my third consecutive year and possibly my final one depending on whether I would like to study any further. This may sound a bit boring but bear with me; I would like to share my story about my game development career, where my skills are at and where I want to take them in the future. Hopefully you’ll be able to relate or possibly even learn something about the industry if you lack any prior knowledge (although I doubt it :P).

I, like many others, have been absolutely obsessed with the magical world of video games since an extremely young age and this sheer love has given me the inspiration and passion to follow my dream of creating my own video games. I have always seen myself purely as an artist but over the course of the last 3 years I have dipped my feet into areas of game development that I would never dream to tread. For example before beginning the course I had zero knowledge of programming except for Game Maker (a very good place to start) which is very simplistic and limited in comparison to other Video Game Engines, but through a lot of practice and research I have gained a lot of knowledge about the fundamentals of programming and a great deal of the C# programming language for Unity engine.

I also learnt a great deal about 3D modelling, rigging and animation using Autodesk Maya which is a very popular piece of software in the entertainment industry. At the moment I believe that I have the fundamental skills that are required to develop my own games but in the future It would be very beneficial if I learned how to produce my own music to broaden my knowledge and have an understanding of almost all aspects of game development. Thanks for reading and putting up with my nonsense. If there is anything you would like to learn about the game industry please let me know down below.
