Extra Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I am going to college this fall. What are all you people my age going to college for? I am getting a degree in Simulation/Game Design, with a focus on the visual aspect, as well as the writing. This is where Paint.NET comes in handy. It lets me practice a few of the skills I will need when I get into college. I will probably be going to ITT Technical Institute for it, because they offer a solid, four year program. So anyway, enough about me. What do you want to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoltBait Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 I wouldn't recommend ITT Tech. Go to a REAL college. Quote Click to play: Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and how about a Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few of the people in my Programer Analyst Networking are going into game design after. Quote DEXTUT.COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extra Posted April 7, 2007 Author Share Posted April 7, 2007 When I first played The Legend of Zelda for NES over a decade ago, I wanted to make my own games, with my own stories and graphics, well, mostly stories. I recently beat The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which I believe is the best game ever. A few months ago, I bought a book that teaches basic programming using a language called Blitz3D (maybe Boltbait has heard of it). I know that this may not be the best language to do this (the book even says so), but it is a start. I am not yet getting into programming, or even the beginning of designing the appearance of things; I am in the middle of writing about a dozen different stories, some fantasy, some sci-fi, and some a bizzare mix of the two. As for PC games, my father and I have been playing PC games ever since he bought a computer in the early 90's when he was in the Army. I got my first taste of the wonderful world of PC gaming when I played Command and Conquer and beat it within a week. I saved and bought the latest good games as the came out. Ascendancy, Homeworld, Master of Orion, and a slew of others. I still play PC games by myself and with/against my father to this day. This started as a post about where you wanted to go to college, for what, and why, but this looks more like my life story. Okay, okay, I'm done. Now you know why I want to design games. What do you fellas in high-school want to do? Well, not just high-schoolers, anybody, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GangstaCrab Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I graduate in May with my chemistry degree, and then its either get my masters in chem, or pharmacy school, depending on which one I get in to.
