Hello everyone, I started programming because I wanted to make games. However, I got a chance to bring the food to the table making on web sites. A few months ago I came across a list of challenges for a programmer. One of challenges was creating a clone of Space Invaders. I created a clone of the game and wrote the article. In the article I wrote about the challenges related to gamedev which I faced. With gamedev background I wouldn't have them, I guess. However, for me as for a backend programmer, they were something. I hope the article is good enough to inspire other programmers like me to complete their first games.
