Varun and Daniel talk a ton about the video game industry - Daniel’s interest in video games from a very early age, how he started writing simple basic programmes of 'text adventures' in primary school, then moving onto make better games in high school with better graphics, learning programming by himself at a time with no internet or even CD-rom drives, doing business programming in college, and more.
