Hiya Richard, welcome to the forum. I've only been diagnosed for a year, did you find it easy to come to terms with? I know some people found it a shock. I myself was relieved to know what it was that made me different :) My brother also has Aspergers and he loves video games, I'm sure if he was a bit older (he's only 10) you two would have lots of things to talk about!

The girl who lives next door to me is an undiagnosed aspie and she just started studying video game programming at college. Top of her class apparently :D
 
I used to be interested in game designing (level design, mapping, that kind of thing) but i didn't maintain my interest enough to persue it as a career. Welcome to the forums Richard!

Hi

I found it very easy to come to terms with. When I found out I was happy and relieved because all the confusion about my self finally made sense and I was able to learn about and understand myself.
