And how to get excited about programming after all these years

I’ve been a programmer for almost ten years, and practically all my career is being focused on making video games.

My dream has always been, become a game developer, with all confident I can say I am a very proud indie game developer.

Over the years, I’ve created many 2D/3D games on different engines.
My first attempts where with RPG Maker and Game Maker; I didn’t know where how to code, and these two engines allowed me to have a taste of making games.

And this is how it all started…

C and C++ helped me to learn proper coding, but this wasn’t very fun; here is when web development came along Flash (AS3.0) and ImpactJS (Javascript).
Thanks to those API, I developed a loved for web games and managed to make a 2D Point and Click demo with simple graphics and rustic animations.
ImpactJS was a fantastic discovered; I created a few exciting platformers which I even exported to android with a cross-platform.
We all know that C++ is not an easy boy to handle, C# seemed more manageable, and I already worked as a software developer with this magic language for two years.
