Throughout this experience, there are several things that I learned. One is programming and creating game has a huge difference. I thought programming was the major part of game making, so before doing this internship, I had some confident that I would do well. However, game making is totally different that I need to think everything music, graphic, how it works, what I want to teach, and story lines. There are many aspects that I need to work on to just to create one game. However, thinking about how to make is more enjoyable is definitely huge part and exciting part of this process. Because I am not playing games often, I need to reflect few games that I played long time ago, and I realized that I need to know more about games. I downloaded some iphone games and pay attention what kinds of triggers, features, items, and strategies those games are using. I was astonished by the small details, graphics, and many game features. These learnings will help me to think more about how to entertain users. Also, by being at game company, I talked with several other people and learned about other online courses such as Coursera Machine Learning. I started to take this course and found my new interest. Also, my mentor told me a lot about what to be like a women working at this field. She had some tough times before, but I cannot see anything like that at 1stPlayable and got rid of my fear to enter Computer Science field. She and other colleagues helped me to start my new project, too. Thank you very very much for all the things that you provided me.
