Indie Diary #47: Sheldon "CyrusTheVirus Studios" - Making a Metroidvania, Self-Taught vs. Formal Education, Becoming a Game Dev

In this episode, I spent some time with Sheldon "CyrusTheVirus Studios" to talk about his metroidvania Cold Lazarus and his path into game dev – which was all but conventional! Starting from a self-taught basis, Sheldon managed to get a degree in software development and is now working on his own game on the side. Enjoy!
