AyhanHub Posted October 11, 2025 Share Posted October 11, 2025 Hello everyone, how are you? I would like to ask you something, if you don't mind. Do you think I should continue making games as a hobby, or should I strive to master my skills and develop large-scale games professionally?

b10b Posted October 14, 2025 Share Posted October 14, 2025 Enjoy as a hobby. Make games you like to play, share with your friends. Learn from their feedback and upgrade your skills. In time there may be opportunity to earn a gig or release a game for small income. But focusing on making games for fun is wise regardless of career ambitions.

AyhanHub Posted October 21, 2025 Author Share Posted October 21, 2025 (edited) Hi. That’s what I’m going to do as well. I realized that I was struggling too much, so from now on I’ll try to enjoy what I create. I love playing and making games, so I’ll keep doing what I enjoy. As for graphics, I’ll get proper training when the time is right. Everything will fall into place in time.

teterevya Posted Thursday at 07:09 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:09 PM I’d say you’re already on the right track by shifting focus back to enjoyment. From my experience, treating game dev as a hobby first is actually the best way to grow skills that might later turn into a career: when you’re not forcing "career outcomes", you experiment more, finish more small projects, and burn out less. b10b 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
