Awwww yeah! I'm glad that this is the first time my OC has been drawn on NewGrounds!

Your drawings are full of life! They don’t even need to be animated to tell a story.

If you want to become a game developer you don’t need college or expensive lessons or pricy programs.
You can learn every skill you need from Youtube and Google search for free.

You can get every tool you need for free, there are lots of free open source programs out there just waiting to be found.

I started out game development when I was like 12 to 14 years old. I experimented and made like 14 unfinished prototypes in Game Maker for free.

You can get straight into the action with Game Maker no code involved.

It’s the perfect motivator for creative types because it’s like training wheels if you keep at it you won’t even realize that riding until far after. Then you gain the confidence to get technical.

You’d be surprised how little math is involved with game dev in general. It’s mostly just typing really broken primitive English.

I didn’t even know the basics of animation back then. I just gained experience from editing pixel art animation stills from popular retro titles.

They’re called sprite sheets. Look up www.spriters-resource.com looking at the animation stills gives away all of the secrets of how animators made every game move.
