Questions About My Hobby...

[Jakeboy28]

I develop games as a hobby, but i'm 12yo. Can I send my games to steam without a company?
Can I release games without my parent's permission?
And can I "work" in a dev team?

PS. I'm from Finland

I don't think you can. I don't know about the law in Finland, but I am pretty sure you'd need parental permission for some of these activities. What's Steam?

Unless they are particularly violent, I am sure your parents will give you permision.

I think you can send to steam without a company. As for your parents why would they not be supportive of your endeavours, game development can be quite lucrative so it's a forward going and promising career and no reason I don't think you can't be in a dev team. All of that being said I have no idea of the laws in Finland. Is there a problem with your parents not approving?

[Jakeboy28]

Thanks for the answers! There's no problems in getting a permission. :)

[kvalidir]

Then that's very cool, good luck with your development:)

12 may be very young, but it's not too young to have developed what appears to be a command of English that's better than some of our regular posters. Good for you Jakeboy28.
