Alright so I have been learning PHP and do website programming for over 3 years now, and have a social gaming website developed, but recently I have been really wanting to get into developing games.
Just tonight I developed a simple game in Blender 3D where you throw balls at a wall and it breaks, and it keeps a score. You can move around along with the camera. But I am just doing this so kinda get a grip on everything, just starting small
But I went around on programming forums and found a team who wants to develop a game like Minecraft. I emailed them offering to help and learn from it. I am really hoping they agree because it would be a huge learning experience to work with a team. Then after that I can use my knowledge to make a game on my own, or expand with the team to bigger games.
This is exciting and a huge turning point in my life! I will keep you up to date on the progress on learn to develop games and such. :)
