    Hey everyone, I'm in my late 30s and feeling stuck in my current career. I've always loved gaming and even dabbled in game development as a hobby. Do you think it's realistic to pivot into the gaming industry at this stage, or is it too late to make such a drastic change? Any advice or stories to share?
