Play your favorite game, if not, just do one. ---Bibibi

Why haven't you played games yet?

First of all to answer a question, why work for 5 years, has not entered the game industry, this should be from my work experience.

After graduating in 2012, the first concern is survival, casually into a willing to recruit my outsourcing company, was forced from C + + development transformation to do iOS, was also very reluctant, what iOS, never heard, I want to do my c++,c++ is the world's best language, so I apply to the Director of C + +, Unfortunately, the director didn't bird me. No way, the salary is more important, so I learned the iOS, did not expect, a do is 5 years.

Skip a few times in the middle of the slot, job-hopping found that the work of iOS is very easy to find, good market, the treatment is also very good, so it has been done now. These technical accumulation and work experience are can accumulate, the company gives you high pay value is also this point, if career change to do game, that is to start from the beginning, treatment significantly reduced. When a person's career in the rapid rise, even if there are other dreams, under the pressure of survival, it is difficult to give up the existing, to start again.

I have been addicted to the game, deeply understand the uncontrolled play game will delay a person's growth, so for me, do the game has a sense of guilt, this is my career at the crossroads do not choose to do the game is very important reason.

In the second half of 2016, iOS market finally appeared inflection point, training class to build iOS talent (1-3 years of experience, the actual training for six months), start-up companies have closed down (there is the app can pull to investment, is the end of the era of entrepreneurship), the iOS market, more abominable is H5 also added fuel, The need to grab iOS, so now iOS can't say nobody, but oversupply is sure. As an iOS team leader of our company, I have also been influenced by nature. The company is no longer recruiting iOS staff, the company forced us to optimize personnel, the crew left one by one, the business piece was transformed into H5 (e-commerce company is not very concerned about the experience), many iOS technology is not necessary to study and share ...
For me personally, currently looking for a higher salary than the current iOS work without any problems, because there are a lot of products are not suitable for H5 implementation, some enterprises already have a complete app, do not need to be refurbished to experience a slightly worse h5, the training of iOS talent is just 1-3 years of the market has been muddied, Less for experienced iOS developers.
In this new and old alternation process, inevitably, I also learned some H5 Foundation and the Framework (VUE), can do some business development, but to this abominable opponent, I only am willing to use it as the auxiliary tool uses it, how all cannot raise the interest to delve into it.

After studying the market, I found that the Java background ceiling higher, better market, and the company has the conditions, for a more rich programming experience and passionate people, the front office is not a lot of difficult things, so I went to learn Java backstage, but did not learn a few days, and fell into confusion.

Market research

Because at this time, the dream of playing the game again wandering in my mind, out of hand.

Why do you play games

Many people do not understand why a 5-year application of the people to abandon the existing technology and accumulation, switch to the game industry, after all, in addition to programming experience, others are not interlinked.

Because I like playing games.

Experience Three
Go to the big interview iOS, the interview passed, pay also talk about, but found that they can only do iOS, can not do games, in a game company, but can not do games, psychology is not taste, silently refused to drop this offer, went to an e-commerce company honestly do iOS.
