Reddit reviews The Black Art of Multiplatform Game Programming

I have a Question regarding a possible Internship. I live roughly around the area, attend CalState Long Beach pursuing a major in Computer Engineering, would be interested in working there part-time. Would that be possible? Or are you guys only interested in fulltime, graduate applicants?

For the record, I am 22 years old. I learned how to program video games when I was 13, and I published a book on the subject a few months ago. You can find it here. My main goal is learning about practical programming and workflow. School seems to mainly focus on theoretical aspects of programming.

Here is the route I recommend:

1. Learn C++ --- there's a lot of great tools out there. http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ is free, will give you the basics. C++ is a good language to start with because you'll learn a bit about managing memory and making efficient code. It has a little higher curve than other languages, but at the end of the day you'll be better off having the skills.
   
   
2. Once you complete that, I recommend picking this book up in particular. It will teach you some pretty great stuff, uses c++, and will get you familiar with some concepts that you'd miss by just going straight to something like Unity. it's always good to know how many of the tools you will be using in pre built engines actually function: https://www.amazon.com/Black-Art-Multiplatform-Game-Programming/dp/1305110382
   
   
3. Once you finsih that, I'd head over to Udemy, and snipe courses when theya re on sale for 10-15 bucks. I highly recommend the GameDev.tv courses there by Ben Tristam -- Some high quality stuff.
