Robert was 14 when he created Bubble ball- an app that took competition from angry birds. This game launched his game company Nay Games. Over two million people downloaded his app in two weeks. He created the app with no previous knowledge of coding. He researched how to code at the library and took ideas from games that he liked on his phone. His only investment was a macbook given to him by his parents.
This is amazing as it shows not only that kids can be creative and do amazing things, but it also shows how powerful reading is. Reading is sometimes ignored or forgotten in the new technology age, but he was able to gain enough knowledge to code over 4000 lines of code on his own without previous schooling. I think that some of the smartest people are really just avid readers or self taught geniuses.
Lesson to take away- read a lot and you will be too smart to unsuccessful.
This is so cool. I think it really embodies the American Dream. He created all of this himself with such little knowledge. I am so impressed and amazed that he could do something like this. It definitely gives me some inspiration. Great post!
It’s crazy to me how he created this without any prior knowledge of coding! I guess that just goes to show that there really are no excuses for not fulfilling a dream. Great post!
Wow it is amazing how putting work an effort into learning new skills can allow you to do amazing things! The best thing about this is that it was able to compete with the top app!
