So today I'll be talking about game development and those who study game development. So from where I'm from, it's not really picking up, as in those who study game development and don't really get jobs. And even if they do, they tend to go into software development rather than what they actually studied for
I think the second group of developers that are going to have the upper hand is going to be mobile game developers or mobile app developers are also going to have a pretty good advantage when it comes to AR, VR and all these other new technologies that are emerging

I think that one of the advantages of being a game developer is that you are a storyteller, and that means you get a chance to really use your creative and take it in many, many different directions, knowing that ultimately you have to build out something that is fun that is intuitively obvious that keeps on growing and really gives you a chance to use your imagination to take it to different levels. I also think there's an advantage of being a game developer in that games are really a team sport
There's all these cool stuff we can do now where video games can also be another kind of alternate way to get kids back into nature and looking around at the mathematics in nature or the geometry of nature, or maybe the medicinal qualities of nature and just connecting with it, even ecologically, which is exciting. There's so many things, and also even outside of this pandemic, it's a crisis

That is so sick. I think with AR coming in the near foreseeable future, it's really going to change and define a lot of things, like how we learn how we do, we Cook, how we do programming or whatever it may be. I think a lot of things will get affected in a good way. And yeah, I think what you're doing is really cool. I and it's good to always stay ahead of the curve

I totally agree. And I think currently in the tech space, web developers are extremely saturated. And even then, when I asked my friends what they want to do after graduating, most of them actually say they want to be become web developers. It's not a bad answer. And it's not wrong to say they want to become web developers if they have true passion for it. But they shouldn't just say because they want to ride the wave if they really want to the wave
