A few years ago, I figured out I was great at designing hand-drawn abstract art. I eventually tried moving this to a computer. I spent countless hours just trying to find the software for me. Suddenly, I stumbled upon Adobe XD. I could use it to design random art on computer, but I used it to learn about UI.
A few months ago, I found the Roblox DevForum. I created a new account to clear old foolish obby moderations, and started with a clean slate. After hours of reading the DevForum, I figured out I could have fun with UI and get paid. I started a portfolio almost immediately.
I made the decision to try out making my own game. I quickly realized that I needed to know how to code to make a game. I taught myself by searching info I need on the DevForum. Eventually, I became fluent enough to code as well, and I just went on from there.
