I remember attempting to learn the C programming language for the very first time just a little under 10 years ago in the summer of ‘98, although I didn’t get too far. I was learning off the very popular C for Dummies Vol. 1 & 2 by Dan Gookin and the very first command line program that I wrote in C was a variant of the “Hello World” cliche program. Dan tried to be funny and witty so he called it his “Good bye cruel world!” program instead. I can’t believe a decade has almost gone by since…
Anyway, this blog will be mainly focused on my main interest and passion: video games, game development & programming, and the gamedev scene and community in Toronto. I’ve been hooked on the subject for over ten years now ever since I read the Dec ‘95 issue of Nintendo Power. It featured an interview with the Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of the Mario and Zelda series and commonly referred to as the “Spielberg of video games“. It was that interview article in Nintendo Power that inspired me to get to where I am today, and for the next few years ahead.
I hope you enjoy your stay.
