Yeah I wish it was still the same today with the gaming industry. It’s sounds like you had a blast. I still make games at home and I guess I’m still hoping it will get better some day. I’m working on that portfolio site. Thanks for sharing the link! Could I get a job like doing prop art with a decent portfolio? Is the…
