Your story is inspirational ❤️
Really glad you've told it here and with the pictures as well really helped me imagine your journey.
Thank you.
I'm inspired to finnish this project and enjoy the next 😉 ✨️ 😊
Quite inspiring story, I think most of us would be definitely interested in getting to hear a 2nd part of your journey.
I totally agree!
Yup
Well he hasnt played the 2nd part yet :)
As as a Games student in my first year of college, this has really inspired me to keep pushing myself. Keep it up mate!!
Glad to hear it Luke! Good luck with college!!!
@@MyGameDevPal Cheers!
where do you study?
Game dev was bad for me. Even though I did well there's nothing out there. My friend who got top marks and I mean 100%, works in a supeemarket
What’s the specific name of your major?
I've just started working at the game industry after studying gamedev too and it's amazing that I can see myself in your story :)
(Although I don't work for a AAA studio, but time will tell)
I hope we can see great game coming from you!
You will eventually work for them. If you don't mind me asking. What game company do you work for?
Everybody has their own path. Some paths are clearer than others. Do not judge your progression based on how other people are doing. Congrats and goodluck everyone!
Needed to hear this, thank you brother and good luck on your journey
You are EXTREMELY intelligent and disciplined. PLEASE! Never lose that spark/drive you have, youre gonna go far in life brother
I'm 40 years old just finally starting to getting round to learning programming and unity, completely new to it but really enjoy watching these types of videos, gives me more motivation, I'll probably never learn as much as you would have going to uni and stuff, but it's all fun and learning. even if I just make some shitty 2D games, that'll be cool haha
It's never too late to learn Adrian ^_^
And to be honest, you probably won't have the freedom to research as much as I did at the time (literally 16+ hours a day of focused intentional work), but there are plenty of fantastic resources online to help push you forward in your journey at the pace that suits you!
I'm looking forward to seeing your creations in the discord showcase channels!
@@MyGameDevPal Yeah you're right, never too late, what I've done now is stop playing games all the time and just try and hammer learning this stuff, I've been trying on and off for years haha.
I'll join your discord if I can, I'm sure that will give more incentive to try harder too.
I am a bit in the same situation. I have finished my mechanical engineering degree and I am working for a famous car company but there is a part of me that wants to toss everything and start a clean sheet in the gaming industry. I started looking at unity for more than a month now and it is fun but it is hard to learn new stuff after 12 hours at the factory :( I can only look for about 30 minutes to an hour if I am not that tired. If I am tired I just skip it since it will not be efficient.
It doesnt care what you study,its the effort you put in,on the game industry you are literally an artist,and well you can guide someone but you can't teach them how to create something,its all about technique and being different from others
@@BloodCatters Yeah same here, I work all day and try get at least a couple hours of learning in, I have loads of little projects I'm working on but I guess it's all just getting to grips with how it all works.
Amazing story. Makes me regret wasting so much time during collage when I knew I wanted to develop my game dev skills.
Same man. I went towards a CAD design degree for “stability” and now all I think about is starting an indie game studio. I’m learning as I go and finishing my first little project someday soon so hopefully I can accomplish some of these goals I’ve set for myself.
I've been working in game dev for 4.5+ years and it seems the best job offers comes not from HRs / tech interviewers / skill evaluations, but the people that just understand what exact people they need in their team and just invite you over. At least from my experience in east Europe.
Also, when comparing your UK College/University experience to what we have in east Europe, you are in a intergalactic space age.
I completely agree with you on this, it's why I always tell younger devs looking for their first job to find great leaders at a young age, rather than highly recognised brands. It's likely they'll gain better experience that way...
you cant even imagine what feels like to be a guy who interested in game dev in middle east ..... THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT GAME DEV IN UNITVERSITY and u should learn everyhing in YT and u cant even buy online course beacause your country is sanctioned by US ....... GOD DAMN IT 😥😥😥
@@parsa26 Self education still exists... Until US close the intenet for us
@@parsa26 Why!? Why did the USA sanctioned your country... what happen!? 😱
@@computergames3918 War in Ukraine happened
Congrats!
A friend recommended this video to me to inspire me to work harder on my course in level 3 games design. From level 2 i figured it'd be quite easy but damn i was mistaken. This video has fully inspired me to push more and research more of my course! So thank you for this 1 year journey it was very inspiring and keep it up!
I'm really happy to hear my story has inspired you to keep working hard!
Feel more than welcome to join the discord and share your progress going forwards!
@@MyGameDevPal I will consider doing that, thank you!
Thank you so much for helping create my favourite game of all time.
Yes. Sot is a really good game, but I think pve is to boring. There also should be more world events
Really happy to hear someone’s game design dreams come to fruition. Personally, I have always wanted to get into game design but ended up in the more fintech side of things. I’ve always wanted to work on a game that would give someone the joy I experienced growing up playing certain games. All the best and keep up the hard work!
As a student at Southampton, it's crazy to think we work at the same level. Edit quality is incredible. Best of luck.
Great video sir, recently been wanting to go back to school. Didn’t know exactly what I was wanting to do. Realizing I love playing games and over the years my love for them has only grown stronger. I really did some complicated math and put 2+2 together… and man oh man it finally clicked. Starting school this semester with big dreams and even bigger motivation! 🙏🏻
As a person who is still in school, knows no coding language other than html and css, very interested in game design, favourite game being Sea of Thieves. Just, mind-blowing
first lesson, html and css aren't coding language but markup language
@@draugh1r219 perhaps but its a start to learning code, and getting you familiar with it in general. Like I went from scratch -> python -> java -> js-> unity/cs, sql, html, css
and thankfully all (small) leaps were simple enough with massive thanks to the previous experience
@@cate01a i know nothing but intrested in all
@@emersedfungus12 what bobbob mentioned is pretty useless and u will find urself in 2 years u learnt nothing. learn c, for gods sake, just learn it. no1 its concepts can be applied everywhere no2 it can be used to make literally anything from game engines to drivers to operating systems to normal desktop apps. after u have made some softwares with c, u can move on to any technology and explore. dont watch some course, read the documentations and join appropriate discords for help from experienced people. u can make desktop apps using c win32 api but it may be hard for beginners. then learn opengl or something, make games with unity and thats pretty much it for starters
@@rukna3775 i have started to learn C and i plan on learning C# after C
But i am confused on which game-engine should i choose unity or unreal
Can you please help.
You have no idea how motivating this is. I’m not even in the games industry but I really feel like I could apply it to me in my current situation. Sometimes persistence and simply just doing what you love will get you there sooner or later.
Learn something everyday - NO Matter what you do in life (and then teach it to others). After 40+ years of purposely doing this - I get a big heartfelt grin inside when I hear others doing the same. It is a fantastic way to live.
And remember, Attitude is and always will be the number 1 maker or breaker of ALL you do. Good luck to you all!
(but seriously - you don't need luck if you have a good attitude).
Sea of Thieves is so beautiful, I am playing through the campaign with my friends right now, and all of your journey gave me a lot of tips on what to do next, because I (15) am applying for Software Developer Jobs at big companies. If that turns out well, I am gonna stay there. If not, I will go to a Game Development School. Thanks for this video, very helpful and inspiring!
🤔💙
You're 15 yrs old?
As someone making their first commercial release, this video gives me a lot of hope for the future
As a sea of thieves player, thank you for your dedication to this beloved game
What an awesome story, thanks for choosing SOT to put your efforts towards!
This hit hard as I’m currently studying Computer Science and not enjoying it. I want to get into games design / development and in my last year there’s a design module. This has inspired me to stick at it no matter how boring it gets. I also live in Newcastle so I may have to check out that masters when I graduate!
😂
Well well well, I think I need to give my thoughts too.
I am studying Computer Science too and my first-year of school was recently finished, so I could say I have ~2 months of free time before leveling up to second-year.
Before going to college, I really prefer to take a course about game development immediately, but there is no game development in my poor city that is offered in here for cheap, it was offered by "private" schools that jesus christ takes a big amount of money to pay, so I choose Computer Science.
Even though I am studying Computer Science, I really do not care about other subjects, I just really "focused' on learning a programming language as possibly as I can, and that's what I am doing, oh, the teachers here seems "uh oh" a little bit 🤣
So yeah, I am currently focusing on fundamentals of programming language, then I will start to learn to make few programs, then after weeks of doing it, I will now try to solve given problems from the internet daily... and on 2023, I hope I am well immersed and confident from C# that I am ready to take the next exCITING!!! part which is installing Unity and experiment there! IF and ONLY IF my parents will buy me a strong laptop in the future.
If they cannot buy it "yet" then looks like I will just focus on learning game development courses without having Unity to practice.
Also I want to learn Blender too, because it's very cool making your own objects and make it alive!
So... I think while studying your Computer Science, try to study game design/development by yourself if you still have time 🧐🤔
this is such a classic success story. part hard work and grit and part luck and knowing the right people. thanks for sharing your journey, wish me luck for mine DX
I'm a first year Software Engineering student but this is definitely inspiring. This entire first year has felt like everything I want to do is just out of grasp (including a lot of my assignments) it's incredibly discouraging but that's what teaches us and pushes us to grow. I've gone from zero coding knowledge to being able to build console applications (albeit basic ones) in a matter of 6 months. That's honestly really impressive and this video was a welcome reminder to appreciate where I started.
You learn best (and fastest) from tasks just at, or slightly above your current capability. It's known as the zone of proximal development in psychology.
Sounds like your course is perfect for you, hard, but not so hard you can't get there.
It's hard, but will get you going faster than doing "easy" things.
@@meateaw I never knew the name of that, thank you! It's been exhausting but at the end of the week I feel more accomplished because of it.
Keep growing, good luck.
I’m a big fan of boost myself, never thought I’d find someone else who likes it
lovely story and also the way the company got you down to meet you shows a real company who cares with a great leader. best of luck in the industry you'll smash it
your vid is hitting the algorithm. congrats bro great vid :)
Thank you! Seems I have been blessed by the algorithm gods :)
About to swap out of my cybersecurity major to get that undergrad games dev degree. This popped up at the perfect time, thank you.
Newcastle CS student here! I cannot express how much this inspire me, keep doing what you doing man!
Send my regards to Graham, Rich and Garry (and Dale if he’s still around!)
Good luck with the rest of your degree mate!
This is inspiring. Tooo inspiring for somebody like me, who has been making video games for 6 years straight alone.
phew!!! finally! can we have VR support for sea of thieves now? ha ha just kidding mate. just woke up today morning and saw this video in recommendation, this is so wholesome and made my day. congrats on the Job. Waking up on a Monday morning and driving to do something we love is such a great feeling. Wish you more and more success. Also seriously! convince the team for VR support :')
I'm still trying to find my way into the industry, but your video helped shed some light on areas that may be holding me back. Thanks for telling your story!
I just have to add that I can tell your school was really good! I was in a game development program and, despite being fairly design oriented, we never really had profs who said stuff like
"Make a game/project with these requirements"
"Go out and play games and get inspired'
And other small things like that.
I think that our school was just far too generalized, trying to cover coding, 2d art, 3d art, music, and design all into a 3 year course with a focus on team projects. Doesn't help that we had a lot of electives that didn't really help us :(
Anyways, now that I'm working full time, its going to be really hard to catch your streams 😔 it was already hard to catch them, but now it feels impossible
Here in Aus it's very similar. I've gone 3 degrees (diploma/bach/grad dip, now masters) trying to break into the games industry and build a skill base as a designer/programmer. In my bachelors I was given the opportunity to build something with other designers only twice.
Since then I have been plodding along alone and have been struggling to find what is good practice, what don't I know enough of (which I feel is a lot) or how to better myself when the courses I am paying for don't quite pan out in the direction they're pitched as.
As an avid SoT player it def gives a major appreciation for the creation behind SoT
SoT is beautifull! lucky you to see the beautiful jorney of one of their workers breaking into the space
I am a software engineer and even though i dont make games, this was highly inspirational. Well done, you clearly put in the effort!
Thank you for your kind words ^_^
That was like watching a movie and just as it's getting interesting the power cuts out
That mirror game was genius
You put in lot of hard work, are very skilled and got a littlw bit lucky. Great Story
Thank you :)
I love hearing stories of good interviewing experiences.
WoW this devlog is actually different from the rest ❤️
I never made a game in my intire my life but now i know what im gonna make in the futur
I worked in the games industry for 10 years. Made over two dozen games. But really, it ends up being the same to work at a big game company as a bank or security company.
The joy comes from exploring your own creativity.
wait, so it was programming all along? lol
I have been a web and applications software engineer for 26 years. I just started my game dev journey about 3 months ago. I did not realize how much I didn't know till I got started. The only game development I had that I would really qualify would be the the MUD that my buddies and I built in C++ back in 1998-2000 but that was a console based application. So far I am enjoying the process and starting to feel like I missed my calling and should have gotten started in Game Dev 20 years ago and I most likely would have enjoyed my time coding instead of getting to the point that I dread doing my day job and now just look forward to my nights in Unreal Engine 5, VS 2022, and blender. If you ever had time I'd love to have a chat and pick your brain.
Hey Robert! I would be happy to chat sometime, apologies for the immense delay in response, I guess I wasn’t quite ready for this video to blow up…
You can message me on discord if you’re still interested in picking my brain.
I hope you’ve been enjoying your time in unreal 🙏🏼
Fix hitreg, bucket reg, bring back "x" bucketing. Please and thank you.
It's crazy how much things you had experienced in a mere year.. i never thought of working on a game dev studio before, i think that might not be a bad idea
If you have the passion for it, go for it!!!
As a Computer Science student working on his own game projects, I can't tell you how inspiring your video is.
PS: Now I am very interested in that Masters in Computer Games Engineering after finishing my BS.
I'm happy to hear it! Good luck with your undergrad!
@@MyGameDevPal how did you get the money to do your masters? shit is really expensive
This is the most incredible story I’ve ever heard… very, very impressive!
thank you for sharing this story its so inspiring, i always go back to watch this video everytime i need some motivation
I always love seeing how devs develop their skills over time
Hearing the Shire song won my heart and imediatly subed 🥰
Really inspiring story, I my self had been really put off uni course which is even specifically about game dev but so far is really bad. But I have pushed my self through it and am now currently in a placment where I am going to earn the money needed to achieve my dream which is studying at an online school to become a 3d animator for games. I'm so excited for the road ahead 🙌
Good luck in your journey John!
@@MyGameDevPal thank you 😊
yo man great video i think i found something to study, i was still not sure what to study after this year but this peaked my interest, thank you
This video is so inspirational. as I am currently studying Game Design and next year starting IT.
it's been a year you released this video and it really helped me to think about becoming a video editor professionally than my current freelancing video editor tag.
Note I just watched your video today.
Thank you for creating it
Great job! Awesome video and story
That's incredible and it really highlights just how much effort you have to put in yourself to learn the skills and tools necessary to hold your own at pretty much any development beyond simple tools. Thank you so much for this, definitely inspiring me to work towards my own goals (I am but a first year undergraduate, we shall see how I go)
'I was accepted for the coming Fall'
You have been disowned from His Majesty's Great Britain.
Great. I loved it. I actually got emotional when you were offered the job. So happy for you. May you continue to be blessed 😊
Going to college this year. I live in a country with no (not small, nonexistent) game development scene. I'm going to study CS, because it's a good foundation, and then I'll teach myself game dev and try to snatch up some remote jobs before travelling to other countries. Hopefully it'll work out. If not, I can just do indie on the side of a full time job, which would be alright.
This video was very inspirational, thanks
11/10! Was going to give 10/10 but then you had to play concerning hobbits at the end.
I've recently finished an associate's degree in game design. Now I hope that I can force myself to sit down and work on my portfolio so people can notice. May your story inspire me and others!
I started programming because of my love for games. After many years, I have moved more into quantitative analysis because of the love of math (and statistics) that I gained while learning game programming. I hated maths when I was in school because I never understood a practical application past the basics. So it's crazy that I diverted from games to this.
I often try to get into coding. Trying every few years. But lacking a proper short term memory centre in my brain it is next to impossible. I learn I get into it, start connecting the dots, life happens I get out of it for just a day or 2 and I'm back to 0 again. the same happens when I try to learn new languages or other new skills. If it is not something that can be compensated with muscle memory then I cant learn it anew....Science (specifically research into behaviour) and coding (specifically games) were and still are some of my dreams. Journaling too but it all requires proper memory sadly. I work as a simple cook trying to be a poet now. (been writing since I was 9 and though I do not have formal training the feedback usually isn't ever rough)
I hear you man, I'm the same. Try making a daily to-do list and just make a coding tutorial 1 point on the list, even a small amount every day adds up to a lot at the end of the year :)
As someone who will soon finish Computer Science and will work as a software developer in a month or so I can tell you that is normal to forget things. There are only 10-20 instructions that you have to remember and understand and with those you can build pretty much everything. Everything else such as fancy functions or libraries, is normal to forget and with just a google search you can find it and remember it.
When I started University I knew: C++ and some HTML, CSS, JavaScript
After first year of university, I really liked Java (is completely different from JavaScript) and I hated Python.
During my second year I still liked Java and found a new programming language called Haskell (which in the beginning I hated it and after a few university projects I found it cool - and after I couldn't remember anything about it apart from the fact that it was cooll).
I had an internship for a year at a consultancy company and I started to like Python and see why everyone likes it. During my final year of university, I worked mostly in Python and done every project with Python.
In other words, I want to tell you that even if a programming language can look complicated, in the end it is just a tool and it is okey to not know everything about it.
TLTR:
However, if I would recommend someone to start "programming" from scratch I would say:
1) Start with P5.js + the tutorials from The Codding train (if I remember the channel's name right) - there are like 20-30 tutorials that can get you from 0 to know how to do almost everyhing in javascript (and the guy who explains is very cool). The reason is with P5.js you can get "fast rewards" like animations, mini games, interactions (with Python it takes a bit more time and experience to get the same satisfaction). In other words, this can help you to keep going.
+ in P5.js tutorials, you develop different small programs with him and at the end he gives you suggestions of what you can add extra on your own to test your knowledge
2) If you like mini devices, consider buying an arduino kit and follow "Paul McWhorter" tutorial series which will guide you with every little step + give you small homework from a tutorial to another (it is so cool that you can practice what you've learnt).
3) I have not too much experience, but if you like game design I would reccomend to start with Unity as it has a more Hands On approach.
I am not sure if this long comment helped but I hope that you give it a go at least with "1)" and maybe "2)" and you will see that programming should not be that hard :)
@@legendarycraft5499 thanks for this, as a writer I certainly aren't ever put off by large text on the internet haha. I guess I should give it another go. For now I first must get a better pc. I am currently making do with a pc built in 2009 XD
@@OrderedEntropy I myself have short memory problems aswell due to medication i have. I have the exact same issues being off for some days and feeling like a complete noob again. Best advice i can give ya is look back on some old code for a refresher. Or make annotations beside ur code explaining what it does. Im currently fluent in css, javascript, html, php, python, i know a little bit of ruby and im currently studying c# most of the time. You can do this my guy! Remember, the best coders know how to use google the best 😂
Learn a visual programming structure like blueprint.. that you know a bit of cpp will help. :)
I play warzone, league of legends with my friends and we use discord. funny enough, 3 of my friends are playing sea of thieves together. I'm a car mechanic for almost 8 years and found interest in game development industry. so I did a bunch of research (so far, for a couple weeks) and now stumbled on your video about how you helped develop sea of thieves. I watch my friends play and It's an interesting game. good luck to you for the future!
Your journey from a Cs student to a Game Dev is really interesting , thanks for the motivation!
I dont know what to call you anymore but I still love your videos Ori
Oh no this is my burner account - F
There we go, now i can like the video twice ;)
Fantastic to hear your story! At the start of the video I expected you to be working at Rare, now I know about Coconut Lizard. That's very cool.
"me who enjoys puzzles and frustrating myself..." with WoW expansions logos in the background hit hard... 😅
this makes me wanna cry as i see my dream fading away
I'm a high school student who really wants to become a game developer in the future. I found your videos one of the most inspiring ones on the internet, and I'm so glad someone would share how they become a game developer from scratch. I am really motivated by how hard-working you are, and I finally have a better view of my dream career. I really enjoy your videos and am very excited to see more!
As someone who is in the middle of transitioning from a sales career to a concept art career, i found this very inspirational and motivating. Gives me hope that i'll break into the gaming industry one day :)
I don't if you know the Sidemen but they played your golf game. I regularly watch the Sidemen and this video had popped up in my recommended. When I saw you show the game I shocked to have a coincidence like this. Absolutely unimaginable! Great job btw!!!
Yeah, that's very inspirational. Thanks for sharing man.
This was on my recommended and I'm stunned lol. I just finished the same course at Newcastle. Now working in an indie team based 5 minutes from central station!
Awesome story. The Sea of Thieves devs sound like good chaps
They really are :)
dude, this "boost" clip gave me scary nostalgic flashbacks.
I spent way too many hours on flights playing boost.... 😅🔥
I'm about to go into cs and randomly found this on my recommended. While I'm not going into game dev, it's still an extremely inspirational story
The trouble about learning game design in college Is that you, and all your peers, learn the exact same content at the same pace as everyone else. You get the same 'inspiration' content from professors who think they know what you should be inspired by. Most come out of it the same as the next.
Gotta say that music game looks sick!
The official game, which was my inspiration, is called "Boost 2", and is on the app store on ios, I recommend you give it a go!
This is pretty insane, I'm currently in the second semester of that same MComp at Newcastle University and I'm looking at applying to studios now along with my 4 housemates who also do the course, that's actually incredible. I've seen that Alumni list at the start of the year, they love talking about it lmao
Edit: This is actually brilliant, last friday we just had Coconut Lizard visit us and I talked to two of their developers who you could have possibly worked with at some point
That’s awesome to hear mark! How did it go? Where are you at now in your journey? 😊
@@MyGameDevPal I've had a job in the games industry now for the past 2 months, pretty insane how stuff panned out over the last 9 months!
I've now joined that Alumni list you mentioned in the video 😃
This was an amazing video very inspirational to me because i live in Southampton and not many people from here end up doing anything cool as this
as a big fan of sot, gotta say i appreciate your and your teams work on it, truly an amazing game.. also, this video was indeed inspiring even though i dont plan on becoming a game dev
I started going to a game development college very recently since i have always been interested in how games are made. I have several prior years of experience with c, c++ and c# which has been really helpful. I must say this video gives me so much hope for the future and that i'll be able to get my dream job when i graduate!
bro thats amazing happy for u bro
Your such a lucky guy, I wish i could find the determination and motivation like you to achieve something like this!
The best way is to take it one day and one problem at a time :)
a truly inspiring story, thanks for sharing
4:28 Masters of game engineering course
So inspiring... Sea of Thieves is such a beautiful and sweaty game... Good luck!
thanks for the awesome inspiring video.
it's been 3 years since I started studying my bachelors in electrical engineering. I like it. but after the pandemic I realized I like game development as well. it's been fun to learn and make games and I hope one day I'll be able to publish my own game.
Very cool! I interviewed for sot years ago. Was not a fan of the 7 hour technical interview challenge so left it but looked like an amazing gig Amazing story you shared ty
As a ex game development student myself It really fills me with hope seeing this story. I'm on a gap year currently working on my 3d skills. I've also been playing Sea of thieves a lot recently and really want to be a part of the team but i will have to work much harder first.
The water in Sea Of Thieves is my favorite part of the game.
As an American, hearing that you just went from one school to another blew my mind because I was thinking just how expensive that would be for me. College is vastly different over in the UK I bet.
This is definitely what I want to do when I'm older, I'm currently a 14 year old kid desperately waiting to get out of high-school to do a games developing/designing course in University, I love the thought of making friends and helping each other make a game, I currently get computing 3 times a week and absolutely loving it, next year if I continue with computing I get to decide to pick the games development path which I will definitely do. I will stick in hard and hopefully be able to make new friends and work with people around the world. Thank you for your story, its good to see a prospective from someone who had done incredibly well.
Just start now? Litteraly making a fiveM server at 15 w friends lmao?
Start now. Most devs are self taught. All the info is on the internet.
I'm very happy for you! It's cool when there are good gaming companies in the country where you live, in mine, unfortunately, there are very few of them.
First, it was the most inspiring video that I have ever seen.
In addition, I am a student and I still intend to do what you say "learn something new every day"
Super inspiring! Thank you for sharing!
Wow man this is insane, what an adventure! Congratulation on all your hard work and keep it up! I would definetly love to see more content. Greetings from Mexico!
Your motto was learn something new everyday, how did you remember so much information without forgetting after reading tons of books?
