“So, I decided to start out on my own, moved out, rented an apartment and started working on designing my own game alone,” he said. This led him to question his choice, wondering if he had made a mistake, but creating games was still a passion he believed he would return to, even if he gave up and pursued something else.
“It was impressed on us in college to always incorporate Malaysian elements in our designs, so we wanted to do it subtly by including certain Malaysian elements in our games without it being too overwhelming,” P’ng said.
