Same world, different view

This is something I wanted to talk about a for few weeks now and I'll explain what I mean by the title.

When I started learning how to program (and more specifically, a bit about game-making) I started looking at games in a completely different way, because I started looking at what actually happens, not what it feels like.

And that is what I'm going to talk about as well as give some examples,even if the experience some times might be a little different it doesn't necessarily make it worse, specially if you're not thinking about HOW the game was created :P

So let's get started

Where to start Programming/Game making?

This is a question that quite a few people have asked me already, and since I talked more about "why" than "how" to program I feel it is the right time to do this post.  Also, since you'll probably need to know how to program before you make a game, I'll talk about it first.

Before I begin though, I just want to say a few things about it.

First, each person has a different learning method, I will mention a few but feel free to explore on your own whatever fits best for you.

And second, someone once said that the only way for anyone to learn anything is if the person wants to. Even the best masters in the whole world can't teach you 1 single thing if you do not want to.

So let's get started shall we?

Request a topic!

Hi, since I have been working with computers and etc for so long, many things now are intuitive to me and I almost get the feeling it's also something "everyone" knows... well, that's not true at all so that is why I made this short post just for YOU!

That's right, just comment here what topic you would like me to discuss! (You can even post anonymously if you're shy!)

It can be anything really... Programming, video games, hacking and web security, Life advice, how to greet a dog, how to make pizza dough etc.

And don't forget you can also subscribe your e-mail here so you get all new posts sent directly to you :)

So go ahead, tell me what you've always been curious about and I'll make a post about it within the best of my abilities!

Cheers!
