A day in the life of an indie developer: Part 3
Krushr \| 12:30 AM on 08.06.2008	6 comments

This is probably going to be a relatively short post today, since I actually have very little to report on.

Our resumes were required to be submitted on monday, with times for the interviews to be posted on tuesday, with interviews starting and finishing today (wednesday). Everyone ended up submitting their resumes on monday, only to find out late tuesday afternoon, that interviews were going to have to be delayed a week.

This is both a good and bad thing, good because it gives me more time to prepare some more work for me to show in the interview. Bad because it delays development by a week.

I do however plan on working with the engine to see if I can produce something cool enough to show you people (and my interviewer(s)).

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I must be missing something.

Most developers are easily impressed. Through together a UT3 map with lots of moving bits, and you'll probably land a job as at least a level designer.

Wait... is you "learning institution of choice" (as quoted from your first blog) Full Sail?

Sounds awfully similar to what I'll be doing about 15-16 months from now. Also, the Half-Life-meets-portal sounds strangely similar as well. We had some students come into our DSF class the other day to talk about Public Speaking class and one student said that they're working on a game that's like portal, but involves changing gravitational pull in the 3D space...

Either I'm crazy, or I'm crazy [i]and[i] correct.

Dammit, I fail at BBCode and spelling...

Full Sail? Never heard of it, I should also point out I'm studying in Australia.

@Suntzu, since programming is where my passion lies, that's the position I'll be going for, I should have enough examples to show my skill.

They've also shifted the interviews to tomorrow (which is good and bad :P), but I managed to get some good work done today, which should pay off for tomorrow.
