Making Games Is Easy (Just Suffer A Little) | Press Start Turbo
Q: What advice would you give to someone looking to get into technical artistry?
Don't wait; start today. Just begin playing with it, even if you’re not good at it. Graphics programming is fun because you can actually see the results right away visually.
The Evolution of Indie Horror Games (feat. DDDistortion Dev) | Press Start Turbo
Q: How has been your experience actually transitioning into the game development scene in Japan?
Tokyo has a pretty cool indie scene, so there's an event that happens once a month called Tokyo Indies, which is an indie developer meetup that's really cool.
