In my spare time, and in between contracts I create video games. I use either C++ or C# as my language of choice. I use Visual Studio 2017 currently. I’ve used Visual Studio since version six.I started making my own game library in 2016. I’ve used it in a few Game Jams last year. I’ve since remade that library and used it in new Game Jam that will start in a few days.I also QA my own games, I’m a one-man team. Under the pressure of a Jam, some are only seventy-two hours, is a good way to figure out what works best quickly. That includes ad-hoc testing.
