My interest in game development started when I was a kid. My brother introduced me to RPG Maker 2003 at a young age, and at around 10 years old I was already making small games in RPG Maker and Pokemon Emerald edits with a Pokemon map editing tool.
When I grew up I got more into art, spending most of my free time drawing, and for most of my teen years I wanted to be a digital artist or 3D modeler for games. But when I got a school assignment to make a small shooter game in Scratch in 2017, my interest for game programming was sparked once more.
I started self-learning C# and followed Unity tutorials until I was able to make games completely by myself.
I almost ended up applying to an art course, but I spontaneously switched to a programming course last minute, and I've never regretted it!
