Hello everyone! Eager to learn

[AStrkl]

Hey there! Happy to be here, I've been a lurker for many years but finally decided to start posting

I'm a game dev with 10+ years of experience, worked in AAA for a while, and ended up working on my indie games. Recently I've been super interested in taking on romhacking as a hobby, and this forum has always been a great learning resource.

I've been doing some simple NES and Gamebody translation on my own, and I'm starting to dabble in 3DS right now, but it's getting very hard so I want to ask the help of users here

So once again, Hello!

Wow! You're off to a fantastic start then. You've joined one of the bets communities to talk about modding and stuff.

Someday I'd like to get into rom hacking too but I don't know which is harder: working with AAA, making an indie game, making a fangame, or a rom hack

I would say its all equally hard, but what matter is making something you like!
So far AAA has been my least favorite experience, but I did learn a ton! Indie game is great to learn a bit of everything!

So far Romhacking has been great to learn very low level stuff, and learn more about how software in general work!

I see. I think that I'll take the indie game approach. I've done a bunch of work to get the game in it's roots and all that is needed is to start working on the game after I've strengthen my Javascript skills first.
