Intro
What's poppin, my name's Gabe. On almost every account I have, I go by AlphaTheKoolKid, or AlphaTKK. I think I'm definitely on the younger spectrum of people here, being 17 (class of 2020), since most of everyone else who's introduced themselves here seems to be in their mid-late 20's, or at least in college. But I digress, I'm just a kid who's always wanted to be a game dev. I've had ideas in my mind for years, my oldest (and most fleshed-out) of which originating from 4th grade. I came across DragonRuby after I bought the bundle for racial justice and inequality and I knew I just had to give it a try. I've still got somewhat minimal experience with code though, mainly all of my knowledge is from my AP Computer science principles class I took this year.
But yeah, my dream is to become a real game dev so I can express my stories and ideas for real.
Internet:
Lmao all I mainly care about is Discord and YouTube. I stream almost consistently on Twitch too, but I wouldn't sell out here.
