@avantgame So just playing more games, in a variety of genres, gives you a broad library of reference for how you can make your own mark. -
@DanielSolis@avantgame True, though I'd argue playing games isn't enough. Try! Make games, even small ones. Some'll fail, but you'll learn. -
@danielsolis@avantgame How isn't important to start with. Paper prototype, GameMaker, social game, board game, code - anything that helps.
