So as you can imagine, I suck.

So I in my Discord I had this problem and I I was like, hey, does anyone know how to code this?

So I had various people try to help me and every person made some progress on the issue but didn't solve it completely.

And then eventually this person, Kirk, who had met me at the game developer conference so many months ago, was like, do you wanna just give me access to your project?

And then the next day just did it all themselves with no just like

Just took that initiative.

I'll be like, wow, do you want a job?

This is your job interview.

So I literally offered them the position right then there.

And ever since they've been helping me with small tasks and also helping me bug fix, which is truly the most painful part of my game.

That being said, I am still programming my game, unfortunately.

I did not, yeah, I'm still working on that.

Yeah, so I am self-taught on everything.

I did go to college, but I went to college for English, which is I mean, technically I do.

There's a lot of narrative in my game, but when I went to college, it was more for analyzing literature and not very much creative work.

So I actually feel like I didn't really gain a lot of English skills from attending university.

So I I but I will thank UCLA though because

They have a game development club and that's what led me to making games.

Oh wow.

In that they have students kind of teaching each other.
