Hey!

Some Context

At the moment I’m writing this draft I’m 22 and I am a computer science undergraduate and I like designing things, computer science, computer programming and art.

So what I can do that envolves everyone of this things? Design Games!

Designing Games is not new for me but I only have small pieces of things done and very few complete games, but now I decided to study art (Pixel Art to be more specific) and a bit of Sound Production (I don’t know the exact word to use here) so I can execute my own game ideas all by my self.

People might say: Oh, but you can do games with simple graphics, you don’t actually need to do the art!! Yes, you are totally right! Short Answer: But I don’t want to. Long Answer:  A thing that took me while to discover about myself is that developing games is not what I like the most, I like to think through all the design aspects of something, therefore, Game Design. I like to program, therefore Game Programming. I like art and I always wanted to be able to do some kind of it, therefore, Game Artist. I don’t want to specifically make a game, I want to do its design, its art and its programming, the game is just the final product. It doesn’t make any sense, does it?

What will have in this blog?

I will make posts that can be divided in some categories, such as Pixel Art, Game Programming, Game Design, Sound Design and related to some specific game that I might be working on.

Actually I will talk about what I’m learning, what I’m doing and what I’m practicing that involves game development in general.

Everything will be under the categories already said and also tagged under a certain game project that I’m doing, or under practice or random moments.
