I Built This Roadmap Because I Had To.

I was a full-time teacher with four kids. I wanted to break into tech but didn’t have time for fluff. I taught myself software development at night, built six portfolio projects, and landed a six-figure job building systems for billion-dollar contracts.

I made this roadmap so others could follow the same path β€” through game development that actually builds skill and discipline.
