Phew, first entry in the blog here. Don't know what to start with. I suppose I'll briefly introduce myself here.
I'm a spanish programmer with a passion/addiction for videogames, and more recently, for making videogames. My aim is to learn game development so I can one day apply to a job in the industry.
That said, I warn you I still need time to get used to this blogger thing. This is the first entry on my first blog. Actually, this is my first entry on any blog ever... So, be kind to me.
In the next days, I'm going to embark on the development of my first complete game. For real now. I had this idea of a simple yet interesting game some days ago. I'll post the details about it tomorrow.
I have such a long way to go...
...whose eyes have no limits

Bio
I started making videogames with Adventure Game Studio back in 2002. Since then, I have been doing experiments with Rpg Maker, Allegro (2d C libraries), devkitPro and PAlib for Nintendo DS, a nice attempt at creating a 2d game engine for java... I have never stopped trying little things, without too much of a set goal.
I spent so long trying to learn game development the painful way: starting everything from scratch. No engines, no tools, just the libraries. Silly me. But I want this to change. Now I know I can't do everything on my own.
So here I am on a journey to finally develop one game. I promise to keep it small and don't look back once I've started with it. I hope that this blog helps me stay motivated and aware of my goal. I'll have to look for some people to help me finish the game, though. I really look forward to knowing people who are at the same spot I am now, and share my experiences with them.
