I've been building since I was 12.
I'm Ömer, 18, from Malatya, Turkey. No formal education in CS, no fancy setup growing up — just a 2009 laptop, Unity, and an obsession with making things work.
The Story
When I was 10, my math teacher noticed I had a natural feel for computers — even though I'd barely touched one. He told me to learn software. I tried on my sister's tablet, but it wasn't possible. Two years later, I got my hands on a 2009 laptop. It couldn't run games, so I decided to build my own.
I installed one of the first versions of Unity and started making games. I was staying up until late every night. It consumed me completely — in the best way. By 14, I realized I could sell what I made. I started working as a freelance developer, delivering projects independently. Over the next few years, I completed 50+ successful orders — first doing university students' assignments, then building real commercial products.
All of this while having no internet or computer at home. I worked wherever I could find a connection.
