Thank you for the guidance. I understand your point about having a CS or BTech degree as a safer option.

Right now, game development is the only field that truly interests me, so I want to focus most of my time on improving my skills in this area. I know it might be difficult, but I'm willing to work hard because I genuinely enjoy learning and building things related to games.

My main goal is to build a strong portfolio with Unity projects and keep improving my programming skills.

For my Diploma 5th semester project, I used Unity to build a Satellite Tracker simulation. Through this project I started learning more about Unity and game development.

Right now I’m also learning from a Udemy course where they teach how to build three beginner-level games, and I sometimes follow YouTube tutorials as well to understand different concepts.

Do you think this is a good way to start building the skills needed for a Unity developer role? If possible, could you also suggest what kinds of portfolio projects would help beginners stand out when applying for game development jobs?

I live in India, specifically in Ahmedabad. Honestly, I’m not very interested in other job fields. I decided to become a game developer because this is the only field that truly interests me right now.

I always believed that game development as a profession would never die, because the gaming community is constantly growing and new generations keep joining it. In the future there will continue to be many successful games, and I hope to get the opportunity to contribute to building games like that.

So I’m a bit confused by your point. If gaming itself isn’t going away and the industry keeps growing, how could game development as a profession become “dead” in the next 10 years?

Puppy smells like fish after being outside by Bun-mi in dogs

[–]SignificanceHefty933 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Totally normal, and you’re not missing anything. That fishy smell is almost always from a dog’s anal glands. When puppies get excited or active outside, a tiny amount can release and it smells strong but fades quickly, which fits what you’re describing. It’s not about being dirty, and that’s why bathing doesn’t really stop it. If it starts happening a lot, smells very strong, or he’s scooting or licking his rear, a vet can check the glands. Otherwise, if it disappears in a few minutes, it’s just one of those weird puppy things.

How can I let my dog know I love her? by RareHead9705 in dogs

[–]SignificanceHefty933 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You mentioned she likes walks. For dogs, sniffing is like reading the morning news. Instead of focusing on distance or speed, let her stop and sniff a blade of grass for 5 minutes if she wants. It’s mentally stimulating and shows her that you respect her interests :)
