====== My word on Game Dev ======

  * I used to make some small 2D games with Flash and actionscript
  * and I made one 3D game in my school time using free version of Game Studio 6, and it is downloadable from (link Broken) and video trailer at http://vimeo.com/3238685

**2016.08** 
  * currently, I am back on research on game technologies, as I am more keen on multiple players on a single computer type of game, since most game only support 4 people on same machine
    * in order to get start, the game engine must support more than 4 game controllers, which leading me to the finding of this game: http://karboom.net/ with 12 players (PS3 and other controllers) on a monitor.
    * and unity game engine support that in a way.
    * official doc, indicating 8 joystick with 20 buttons: http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/KeyCode.html

  * for game sale platform, my findings are:
    * http://www.desura.com/
    * http://fireflowergames.com/
    * https://www.humblebundle.com/store
    * of course, steam for computers and mobile stores
====== Start ======

Before making a game, you need to choose
  - your target platform: Web browser or Hardware like Windows PC, Mac, Linux PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Wii, or hand device like iOS device, psp, or other consoles
  - your game engine: you need to choose a game engine to start-off (building a game engine is more difficult than a game, requires ground-up programming work)
  - choose a programming language: depends on your game engine
