Hello dear game developers, In today's post i will share how i got real customers and started a profitable business as an instant game developer. Hope you like it and also give it a try to earn some real cash from online.

I have been learning and making games for Facebook instant game platform from last 6 months. In February i saw people around me working on fiverr. I wanted to give it a try. Why don't i start with what i am doing right now. So i created a gig on Facebook instant game development and within 1 month i achieved $450 and a 1 star review and still getting works from buyers.

Firstly i learned 2d game development by accident. I started work for a local company but they didn't pay me for my work. Then i started to work for another company and they pay me well. I work on unity there but sometimes they need javascript to publish game for clients.

How to get started? Go to fiverr open your account. Create a gig of what you are good at or at least confident you can you do it. Do some seo first. And wait for few days. And this will bring you your first customer.

What to do if you get your first buyer? Try to complete your first project as soon as possible with given requirements. Keep good relationship with buyer. Because he/she may have similar works for you. And be honest with your buyer. If you face any problem don't hesitate to ask. Keep updating him/her everyday. If buyer asks for a revision try to solve issues as he/she says. And that's it. If you can fulfill this criteria's your buyer will return to you.

You can visit my fiverr gig from here: https://www.fiverr.com/share/jjQKKV

In next few posts i will share how i develop games using javascript/typescript.

Stay at home. Wash your hands. Don't touch your face without washing hands. Be safe and keep safe.

Thank you for reading. Keep following for more updates on outsourcing.

Hei you! Yes you. From today you are a JavaScript programmer. "Whatttt! How can i be a JavaScript programmer? I barely knows C! Are you mad or something?"
Cool down dude! Take a deep breathe and read this carefully.
Learning anything specially programming isn't hard. But doing something great with that lesson is pretty much hard. You can learn from the internet courses free or paid.
But when it is time for make something good for the real world people get stuck. Working on real product can teach you better than any lesson or degree. So how you will you do it?
Remember this formula when you start learning or building something new make sure you collect enough resources of it. Resources can be blog, forum, websites, repositories etc.
Lean from the blogs or sites and if you get stuck anywhere just ask help on related forum or stackoverflow.
Think your product, Design it, build it and publish it.
Happy Coding! 😁

Switching from Software Developer to Game Developer: good or bad?

Finally, after working 2+years as Software Developer my dream of being a Game Developer has come true.
From childhood i was always a fan of computer games. But as being from middle class family i couldn't afford any computer that time. My parents also didn't like kids to play games. When i got admission into the university my father gift me a small notebook pc. Which has so little configuration that i only can play miniclips games.
But after my graduation i started work for small companies and clients. And i managed some money to buy a average configuration vivobook. I always wanted to play "Ori and the blind forest". I started playing it in my vivobook.
As a computer science student and software engineer i was always obsessed with the game engine and it's architecture how they works. And started my research on different different game engines like unity, unreal, godot etc. I thought if i could become a game developer one day.
From university i used to do some graphics and animation works. Which are helping me now.
Learning new things is my hobby. Love to challenge myself. Hard and sophisticated problem solver. Game development is the most complex software engineering. Let's see how far i can go with my game development career.
