 +====== 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

 +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
