Hello and welcome
If you've found your way here you are probably familiar with who I am and what I do, I haven't been active in years so why are you even here 😅 but if not allow me to introduce myself;
I am Ryan van Zeben (Also known as vanZeben or DesignsbyZephyr on the internet places), a 29 year old, father of one, software engineer from Ontario, Canada. I have been recording tutorials on how to create games through-out my own learning process, both formal and informal. I am currently working full-time as an SDE III here at Github! It's quite a lot on my plate and by all means I asked for every single grain of rice on it.
I love what I do. I love creating games and explaining to others not only how to perform specific tasks but helping them improve their own problem solving skills at the same time. I try to keep on top of things, but sometimes life gets in the way with work.
Apparently you can't pay for your groceries with good feelings. Your landlord doesn't accept hugs and kisses in lieu of rent. And the tax man certainly doesn't appreciate it when you fill in your self-assessment with hearts and flowers.
I am going to continue to make videos free for everyone who wants to learn from them on Youtube. This is simply a way for you to help support what I do, if you want to and more importantly if you can afford to give a couple of dollars a month.
