About me:
I've been learning game development for a few years now, I do have a background in software engineering, and I also have a background in education, so being able to combine my love of gaming, software engineering and education is the best way to spend my time.

I am currently working on this 3rd person action adventure game as a hobby, but I am also trying to build a community, thus I am creating YouTube tutorials to find others who are interested in game development and design.

If you are interested in learning more or if you are interested in working together, please let me know in the comments.
