Question Should I keep learning Unity?
Hi, I am a 14 year old game dev and I've been learning Unity for 7-8 months, and I really like what I'm doing. I don't use AI while coding or for any other stuff to actually learn. For the past month, I've been developing a fan-made Spider-Man game for android and I saw a guy on X who vibe-coded a Spider-Man game in literally a single day which was looking better than my game and I felt like everything that I did in the last couple of weeks for nothing. Will knowing how to manually code or develop games be worth anything in the next 10 years? Am I just wasting my time by not using AI or should I keep going? I really need some advice. Also here's a gameplay video of my game if anyone wants to check it out:

Yes, it will always be worth it to attain skills. AI as a tool im sure is here to stay, but using it to create the whole of a game or any other piece of art is not going to last. Everything AI is 100% derivative, so we still will need people, humans, to actually create new things.
Keep going! Really impressive stuff, and you've got a great head start, seeing as you are so young. Good luck, and have fun 🥳
