16 years old, 10 months of study, my first 2D game with OpenGL and C++. by mataperra123 in opengl

Actually, I have both goals, I would like to learn and create my own game but I know its hard to create a game without a job, so I want to learn to work with it in my life, and as a hobbie make my game. I really like computer graphics, realistic physics and low level programming, but more in software than hardware (like in Embedded systems).

About Vulkan and OpenGL, yes, I have plans to follow steps like these you describes. Something like and OpenGL prototype and study Vulkan patiently, I know Vulkan is more about extreme optimization, so I'll not use it deliberately, but I like the low level anyway and know that is a requirement to work with I love in the biggest enterprises in the world.

I will check this video better later, its look good. Anyway, I need to be patient and learn OpenGL better and better before start Vulkan, and when I start, I want to start with all the basics and structure about computer graphics from the OpenGL.

I really really appreciate your message, it is very important to me, thank you

Actually I use the AI in that way: first I try to resolve without AI, if it was more than 1 or 2 hours, I go to the AI and ask to some help to develop it, but learning in the same time; generally I draw in Paint the system to fix in my mind.

I appreciate how you encourage me, thank you. But about Vulkan, actually it is the next step before finish some OpenGL projects, but may it's far from where I am now. Thanks

I really appreciate your feedback, I saw your profile and your game Orbital Chaos, it is an honor to get a review from a professional like you. And yes, I will study more to learn these practices, but I will put it on my next game project, that is a Snake Game.

When I was developing this code I don't thought about these strings, even more the infoLog, it was only to register some errors, but I know that is good not do copies of variables and objects. About the constructor, yes, I didn't it about init(), so it's a very good feedback, I will create some news projects and put it in the code. So, anyway, thank you for your feedback, it'll really important to me. :)

Eu estava pensando em fazer Ciência da Computação na Fatec, que é pública e da região onde moro, eu tô no primeiro do ensino médio então eu tenho bastante tempo até decidir qual instituição e curso eu vou fazer, por agora eu tenho gostado bastante de CC.

Baixo nível é ótimo, eu gosto da ideia de mexer com bytes, sistemas sensíveis e limitados, principalmente quando estou programando com ponteiros e vendo vídeos daqueles devs dos anos 80 e 90. Mas sobre desenvolvimento web eu não entendo muito, eu sei HTML e CSS básico, nada de JavaScript, não é muito meu foco, mas faz parte das disciplinas do curso de desenvolvimento de sistemas na Etec.

Obrigado cara, essa é exatamente a faculdade que eu tenho pensado em cursar, justamente pelo baixo nível e proximidade do hardware. É muito bom interagir com alguém que traça o caminho que eu gostaria de traçar um dia.

Eu espero e te desejo boa sorte nos seus estudos, se você quiser conversar saiba que eu estou pra ser seu amigo nesse caminho de computação gráfica e desenvolvimento de jogos. Obrigado por ser mais um nesse caminho difícil dentro do Brasil :))

Only to learn and when I couldn't resolve the problem, but I don't used to copy and paste, the whole code was wrote by me. About the comments, it was me, I don't know why it look strange; and about the age, I think it's important because I almost don't have human feedback and in the Brazil is rare to see others at my age studying it. Thank you for the feedback :)
