You don't HAVE to be a full-time game dev to learn and build games! Naturally the more time you have to dedicate to learning and honing your skills, the better you will become faster. But if you have a 9-5 job or school, you can still definitely learn, it's naturally harder but it can be done. Fitting game dev around a job, school is all about experimenting with your schedule. Find pockets of time (morning, lunch, evening) and keep sessions short but consistent. One hour per day beats doing a 10 hour marathon on weekends! Consistency truly is the key, if you do even just a few minutes every single day, you will learn an insane amount over the course of one year!

@UnityCodeMonkey Actually there is pretty good ways to do stuff at work, most of it is planning, architecture, balancing, writing. People dont think about those but they do take immense time!

@UnityCodeMonkey Funny timing. I lost my job in February and went all in. Game dev is my full time job now — just unpaid for a bit. Some days that's terrifying. Most days it feels like the best decision I ever made. Your course is a big part of why that feels like a real plan and not just a dream

@UnityCodeMonkey Thats True. I have worked on my project during university and after work and now I am developing my first game on steam. It is possible for Everyone!

@UnityCodeMonkey And you don't gotta stick with one game. It's actually better in a lot of ways to try and make 3-5 games at once... And then when one takes off, aim your focus on that one.

@UnityCodeMonkey I Work 50 hours have side hobbies and family and STILL found time to release a game and working on 2 more games and a film and a music album. It’s not motivation. It’s passion and determination.
