When making apps, all those areas of you are unused.

And you can learn the basics of all the areas and make something great. But it is creative/craft work, and not boring. What I am trying to say, it looks like genius but it is a lot of work over a period. And when you model, texture, rig and animate that it can be really impressive. But books and tutorials on art exists too of course, how far that rabbit hole do you want to go? And 3D is a bit of a mix between tech and art, you could draw a cute character on paper front and side with a pencil. On a computer it can almost be like cheating because you can be 'inspired' by others. That theory is much easier than programming, still takes a lot of time.ĭrawing I'm not really good at, but got an eye for what looks decent and can play with colors. Many years later got a guitar and tried to learn that, you get a lot of music theory from that. Fooling around in ReBirth and Fruity Loops. Parallel to all this I was interested in music too. Those books and formulas were hard for a mediocre teenager. But I get easily distracted, procrastinate and lack enough IQ. Finally I could make something, it took more than a decade to get simple games on the screen for me. Then I struck luck getting into game programming at a tech institute. At around twenty, there were enough tutorials in Macromedia tools to sort of guide me toward something. And as a teenager programmed some for the web, and trying to learn C++ reading Quake2 source or whatever I could find, also bought some game dev books.

I was interested since a kid to make games. Speaking as a game dev, I think you can learn it, but it takes time.
