Why I am making a game?

I WANT TO LEARN GAME DEVELOPMENT AND I CAN'T WAIT.

It's an hobby that I wanted to learn from a long time ago.

and also...

Because it's fun and almost everyone love games... I wanted to learn game development from a long time but never got time from other works and my health issues and it required hardware like a strong pc with a strong processor to run those heavy and expensive game engines but I got my old pc and I found out a game engine that can run on my pc and it's open source so I don't even need to buy a license.

now making a game or learning game development is not easy. Many pro game developers have said that with practice you can make your dream game but even they estimate a time of 1 - 2 year of game development before one can learn making decent looking games. I am gonna do it by the help of Gdevelop's visual scripting language.

As I am going to learn game development I am thinking to make a simple game for  my sister and surprise her.

Challenges...

Yeah I know what you are thinking how am I gonna do it in one and a half month of time with all the other important work I have to finish while managing my type-1 diabetes... well I think I can do it and I am super excited about it. Come on it doesn't have to be perfect.

but even a simple 2D game is no joke.

Yes I am thinking too how she will react... ahhh I hope she likes it... she will like it!

Right now I don't have a clear picture of how's the game gonna look but I will work on it and this blog will record this journey of me creating a game for my sister and also me becoming a game dev because I always wanted to make my own games and I think time has come... let's do this.

Appreciation time...

my sister...

She is a really awesome human being and a great cook, a creative painter, a melodious singer, she dances too, a talented gardener, a writer, a reader and a meditator and I mean there's nothing that she can't possibly do! 

and there can be a separate blog just about her... yeah she is that great! 

The purpose of this blog

The purpose is to record what I am doing, how I am feeling in the process and all the progress that I will do on the game.

and to inspire whoever reads my blog that anything can happen if we put effort and stay consistent.

Just like a writer's first draft is not a best seller same way when you are learning something like game development, your first game can't be the best looking one but it can be unique. It doesn't have to be perfect when it's the first. 

I will post screen snaps of games and levels that I will create and also about the things I am experiencing while learning something new and finishing what I am going to start on time.
