How I went from knowing nothing about making games to publishing one on Steam, in 18 months.
I decided there is no guarantee for success, but there are some things I could do to give me the best chance to complete my goal: Finish a game in about six months to a year that people might pay money for. I had to make a lot of sacrifices to learn as much as I did in a short period of time. tv.
Hey there! My name is Kirt Olson. I am NOT someone who studied computer science in college. I am NOT someone who grew up doing any form of art...unless you count painting Easter Eggs once a year. I am just an average guy with a family who works full-time as a real estate agent.

I wanted to write this article to help others who may have dreamed about making games, but maybe felt like they missed their chance to do so...HINT...you haven't!
