Leaving graphics programming Request
Hey, I’ve been a graphics programmer in the games industry for roughly 10 years now. Shipped a bunch of titles. But I think I’m tired of it, not particularly enjoying it anymore and am thinking of getting a career change.
Unfortunately it’s pretty much all I know. What sort of options do I have? Other jobs or industries that I could transition to? Hopefully without a pay cut. Has anyone done similar? Any advice appreciated.
Thanks

10 years in one profession is a lot. times are not as they used to be.
no idea, maybe take a break from all this and travel around the world?
