YO, same, I bet we hung out on Kirupa at the same time haha.
I worked on flash games at Disney, PopCap, Sony and Amazon. That was the shit for a while for 2D games. But I actually went from social to mobile to PC games and found myself less and less interested. Don’t get me wrong it’s very cool code and quaternions solve a lot of the pain so some of the math is frankly less fiddly than 2D, but I wasn’t in love.
It’s been nice to fully pivot towards cryptography and security since I get to work on a lot more projects and do a better job on them. No one cares about bugs in games. Everyone cares about bugs in crypto. It’s nicer for the engineers.
Plus it’s frankly so deep that I have very little risk of mistaking myself for an expert. Even PhD’s only have a narrow specialty, it’s very comforting how hard it is.
