Why The Name Change?

A few days ago, I decided to change the name of my blog from My Journey Into The Games Industry to My Journey Into Games.

By definition, an industry is the commercial production and sale of goods.  The games industry wears this definition on its sleeve by producing and selling games.  I don't mean for this to sound negative.  It's not.  I buy games frequently, and am thankful people dedicate their careers to making them.  I think it's fascinating how much money people spend on games each year.  Hint: it's a lot.  More than Hollywood a lot.

The more I've thought about it though, the more I've come to realize that my immediate goal is not to make a career out of games.  If my current adventures lead me to a job in the games industry, great.  But that's not my goal.  My goal right now is to learn how to make games and then make games.  That's it.  Hence the name change.

Cheers,

Danny
