Week 6

It's best to skill broadly when starting out in game development, because it gives you more flexibility to adapt to whatever opportunities become available. 

BUT specializing is the best way to get really good at something 

• Indie devs are almost always broadly-skilled, including self-marketing and publishing 

It's generally worth more to look for a full-time or AAA career overseas than in Australia

Contract and indie work is a good way to get lots of experience 

• an 'indie studio' can be just yourself, putting games online! 

most game engines are fairly similar on the whole, which makes it easier to switch between them 

the benefit of a physics-based camera system (like Unreal Engine) is that the view won't clip through walls, but it can throw problems with first-person perspectives.
