Congratulations! What did you build?
Thanks! I made a submarine game called DeepBlue where you explore the ocean floor generated by ocean depth map data:
Have you published it on the App Store yet?
Not just yet but it’s in the works!
Also - post it on GitHub. Preferably now while you’ve got people paying attention. :-)
When I’m going through job candidates, nothing gets my attention better than a public GitHub project where a lot of other people have stared/forked/written issues/submitted pull requests/etc. Which means you shouldn’t just post it, you should spend a bit of time maintaining it. Fix bugs, add features, add content (search for treasure?)
Thanks for the tip! https://github.com/jcuberdruid/DeepBlue
I’ll add more to the repo but here it is for now :)
Congratulations! The sub game looks like a cool project.
As someone who’s gone to college twice, let me just tell you, go to Cupertino for that trip. Even if you have to take out additional student loans for it. Is it financially responsible? Heck no, but its something you’ll look back on and be happy you did, plus its a great networking opportunity to both get a feel for the industry you’re preparing to enter and to potentially meet people who might help you land a job later on.
Bring that to your department chair and ask if they can help sponsor the trip. It’s a big deal and something the department would be proud of.
