Like many others, I've been challenged to become part of "The Brotherhood of Becoming Better Developers" by
George Clingerman. I'll gladly accept this challenge, and see how far I can take it. Here are the 3 goals I aim to accomplish in the next 6 months...
- I will put time aside every week specifically for game programming. Whether it's 1 hour or several hours, I'll continually make progress on a project. In addition, I'll set deadlines on my projects to help me finish them.
- I will pick a certain programming construct or idea and blog about it every week. The concept may be new to me which will require me to do some good research or I may already be familiar with it which will still require me to do some good research. Whatever the case, I will be doing research, thus learning.
- I'll start jumping head first into sites like Gamasutra.com and GameDev.net to stay more current on what's going on in the gaming world.
If I come up with any other goals, I'll make sure to post them. And so it begins...
