So I have always been interested in making a video game, I love playing them and I am curious about the process and possibility of getting employable skills without going back to university. I also studied digital film technology at university which included 3d modeling and creating 3d environments so I already have some knowledge of creating virtual items and environments.
However I am happy to say CryEngine 3 created by Crytek has tools which means you can start building your first level very quickly. I have toyed with source and the unreal engine before but cryengine3 is definitely the quickest, easiest and one of the prettiest engines on the market. Dragging and dropping 3d models and texturing painting with preloaded textures, controls and physics also come with it. All for free! I am going to blog my experience's and possibly vlog the process. So lets go!
