maybe, and only if we got an artist
What language(s) do you use? I pretty much just use Javascript.
I use Unity for gamedeving so C#, but i also know a handful of other languages like C++, python, Java, etc
Real talk: why learn so many programming languages? I just learned Javascript because it seemed like the main program out there and that I'd never have to learn anything else. I was thinking about learning Python or C++, but then I thought, "Why bother?"
most of the OOP languages are basically the same syntactically. once you understand the general concept of programming, learning a new language is a breeze. that is excluding learning the actual intricacies and quirks of said language, but the more you use them the more you learn about them.
either I learned other languages to get a leg up when applying for jobs, or my job required me to use it.
say for example I had to learn a bit of SQL in one of my jobs as a backend engineer. or i had to learn a bit of javascript to connect API calls from the server. or i had to make some build scripts using python.
Sorry for all the questions, but how did you get these jobs? I didn't go to college for CS, so I never got any internships or anything like that. I have no idea how far behind I am from other applicants, but I just need to get that first job.
let x = new R9kGame()
x.run()
you guys fill in the rest
Doesn't "new" have its own unique purpose?
>I didn't go to college for CS, so I never got any internships or anything like that
thats what i did. I got a BS in CS and a minor in Math.
I got a couple of unpaid internships as well as a bunch of small projects on github. then when i graduated I got my first programming job.
It might be hard to get a software engineer job without a degree, but i think if you go to a code camp and have public projects you shouldn't do too bad.
many code camps have employer clients lined up ready to recruit. most likely a terrible code monkey job but you got to start somewhere
Coding bootcamps sound really fun, but I've also been told they're pretty darn expensive. Still, I'm willing to pay 2k for a bootcamp if I get a higher return on my salary.
Some of them have camps for "free", as in they take a percentage of your salary from the client that recruits you
>when they give me a free bootcamp experience and you get an unpaid internship
Sorry, I meant to word that differently. I meant it in a way where the people giving me the free experience don't get paid a commission because I have no salary. Just wanted to make sure you knew it wasn't a jab.
I dont code for free or pleasure
Nobody codes for pleasure.
I used to write malware for pleasure
What kind of game? pic related
Most languages are the same conceptually, just with some nice added on features here and there (e.g. memory management in C, higher order functions async/await in JS, etc.)
If you guys wanna do a visual novel, I'm all for it.
Personally I don't have much time for it anymore. I'm busy irl searching for internships/jobs/romance.
Fucking sucks getting old. I could imagine contributing to something like this in my teenage years, but good luck OP I hope it goes well.
You always have time, friend. You just need to give yourself permission to use it.
I don't know fren, the time is just ticking so, so fast. It's already Spring 2022, Jesus Christ.

If you have some way to magically make more time appear, I'd appreciate it if you let me know ASAP.
class R9kGame {
constructor () {
this.ctx = document.createElement('canvas').getContext('2d');
document.body.append(this.ctx.canvas);
this.ctx.canvas.width = this.ctx.canvas.height = 1024;
}
run() {
this.ctx.fillStyle = 'red';
this.ctx.font = '4em sans-serif';
this.ctx.fillText('you win!', 10, 500);
}
}
You want my honest advice? Don't use this website for a few days and feel the absolute freedom that comes with it. It's amazing how much work I get done when I just take a break from it all for a while.
K, since you took the time to write that out I'll try it out. Signing off Any Forums for tonight, see you around user (or not...)
