Brett Makes Games

About

Hi, my name is Brett. I make games. Right now I'm a hobbyist game developer, but I have aspirations to try to make it my primary vocation.

I started programming games when I was a teenager and have consistently come back to it in my free time over the past 15 years.

I've primarily built a lot of prototypes and small games, and I'm working on improving my skills to take on more complex projects. I'm interested in the programming, art, and design aspects of game development. It's challenging and quite rewarding.

I love sharing what I'm learning, which has resulted in a YouTube channel about game development and a book on game programming for beginners.

I loved Japanese RPGs growing up, in particular the Pokémon and Dragon Quest series. Lately I've been enjoying a lot of shmups and traditional roguelikes.

I'm looking forward to sharing my game dev journey here!
