FLASH

An amazing and unbelievable story to share this week as we sit with Joey Betz, Lead Engineer to talk about his early days as a flash game developer, working on 1 game a week for 5 weeks and coming up with the game that was "referenced" to create Angry Birds.  To top it all off, he left all kinds of good advice on starting small :)Thanks for our Patrons for support: Paul Miller Jr., Jarvis Mcgee, Habib Khan, Jan Tverdik, Kelvin Reid, Garrett GustafsonSupport us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/gamedevunchaine--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gamedevunchained/message
