6 Reasons You Need To Start Building Your Own Video Games

2. So Many Friends, So Little Time

The community aspect of nearly everything you can undertake is a coin of two sides. Firstly the community is a resource you can tap to help you with problems you just can't get over. And secondly the community is something for you to contribute to, a way for you to get your ideas, models and scripts out to a wider audience so you can benefit everyone. The community in coding and scripting is pretty incredible here on the internet, nearly every problem has been discussed multiple times from multiple angles and the result is a very rich information network for you to tap and help you get started. And the best thing about coding with the internet community is their willingness to respond to your questions and to post tutorials for you to follow. This community isn't just a wealth of knowledge but a wealth of tangible resources for you to use. There are countless websites devoted to people giving you their texture packs, meshes and scripts for you to play with just for that warm fuzzy feeling they get. You too can be the proud owner of this fuzzy feeling by contributing to the community, bringing your stock photos to the table for good textures, bringing your NPC meshes so people have an easier time bringing their ideas to life or post YouTube videos on how to cleverly script some rain falling.
