Not unlike the pressure I often when learning to code.</p> <p>I'm 46. I haven't coded since my TRS-80 computer from RadioShack. Ok, who remembers RadioShack? But I've always had an interest. </p> <p>I wish that I had the tools and educational resources I do today back when I got my first real PC. Back then however you had to hope someone had a bootleg of Visual Basic, even then you had no real way to learn it. At least not the way you can learn today.</p> <p>Back in 2020, I found Udemy. At the time I needed to learn Adobe InDesign and Photoshop. From there I found an Intro to Coding course. I enjoyed it so I explored it more. I then took a course in web development and eventually I found myself venturing into the realm of game development.</p> <p>Since I am a complete noob and I wasn't learning for a current or new job I spent the last year or so exploring different venues. Today I am beginning to settle in. My current areas of study are Python, C#, HTML, and CSS. I'm using Visual Studio 2022 and the WordPress environment which is actually for my current job.</p> <p>I blog about my journey to become an indie game developer on my website <a href="http://d24indiegames.com/journey/">D24 Indie Games</a>. The blog has been an essential tool in helping me continue forward.</p> <p>Happy to be here on DEV and looking forward to taking my coding journey to the next level.</p> beginners computerscience gamedev wordpress
