This was very insightful, thank you so much for answering!

Thank you for being open to an AMA!

As a fellow software developer and aspiring game developer, I have a couple of questions. If you don't mind answering them, that'd be super cool.

1. With how the industry is infamously harsh and unstable, at least to the developers, would you consider a wise choice to leave the more stable corporate software development for the gaming industry? I've been a software dev for the past 8 years and my dream has always been to develop games that people enjoy.
2. On the more technical side of things, what would you consider the essential first steps to re-skill to game development? I'm fairly experienced in .NET, so Unity seems like a no-brainer. But I've been also thinking on studying some lower level stuff like OpenGL.

Thank you for doing this! Stories like yours are really inspiring.
