Good God, a fellow accounting graduate turned game developer. Glad I found your channel this early on. Keep sharing, I’ll be following your tutorials and devlogs. 👊🏼
I'm going to have to really disagree with the "don't go to school" take. I've worked at two AAA studios and it is very common to hire people with game development degrees, and that includes myself. Pretty much all game design school have you actually build games. When I graduated I had made 5 games all using my own engine. For indie it might not matter as much, but you will still gain tons of skills.
how the hell starts to make a game, from scratch, not knowing ANYTHING about coding, with making an engine!!???? how is TOO GOOD for Unreal or Unity!!!??? FF7 remake, Arkham City, Hollow Knight, and Cup Head are all made there. I'm sorry... but if anyone thinks that, for their FIRST GAME, they're gonna surpass any of those titles, they are fucking bananas.
Not gonna lie, I find it really impressive when someone makes their own engine… but it’s definitely not for me, not when we have such great free options available.

I think Stardew Valley was made with Unity
