Very far. I'm a fullstack web developer. Independent game dev has been my hobby for 10 years, and game dev is what got me interested in tech when I was a kid. I started teaching myself at a young age with qbasic.
Building interfaces and menu systems etc feels very similar to frontend web development. Much of the domain knowledge transfers when it comes to programming. Mainly my skills transfer to gameplay development and debugging. I make small games and only just recently released my first commercial game, which has only sold two copies.
