12 years ago I got a license for Adobe Flash CS3, and so my game making journey began... I created pretty terrible flash animations, eventually moving onto games, slowly improving my skills before graduating to Unity. Since then I've made a bunch of projects in Unity, both 2D and 3D - including Lumbermill, my biggest project - an indie management / factory builder game. This video shows my progress over the last 12 years, from total beginner to full-time indie dev. Hope you enjoy!

Great video, super cool story! Just wanted to say, in case anyone else gets this feeling, you don't have to start young or early to be good or make games. I started programming when I was at the end of high school (17 or 18) and am now a senior programmer at a AAA game studio. The key is to just get in there and start making things and learn!

Funny that when I was younger I unknowingly played games from both names you went by, and now Im watching your youtube videos :)

Super proud of your progress Ben. Can't wait to see where you go in the future! Let's make games for the decades to come 🔥

you uploaded your first game the day before i was born!

12 years is a long time, but getting started early really helps. I started coding at 12 years old and loved it every since :)

I see SimCity 4, I see culture. The same goes for Rollercoaster Tycoon. Brings me a lot of nostalgia.
