Tibs GameDev DK30 Spring 2021 1 0

Description

I want to write games for a living, and I think that I have gotten into a good enough work flow in my writing. But lets be real. There is no way I can get a job as a game writer, without also being at least SLIGHTLY versed in making games. They say the best move to get a job where you want is to start in the mail room or sweeping the floors, and that takes coding in the game industry. The internet tells me one of the best ways to go from zero to coder is Harvards CS50 course. It’s free, has a sequel game dev course, and will is well known enough to not look horrible on a resume.
