At a time when students are busy preparing for their semester exams, this young lad Paras Waykole is busy managing his gaming startup (which he started in February 2015) and planning for his next games. His interest in games in not new. Paras, whose parents ran a computer course center in Jalgaon, had access to computers since early in his childhood.  His obsession for video gaming started from the time he was four years old, but his interest in developing games was not a stroke of chance.

“One day, I wondered about how games are built and went over the internet in search of this knowledge. After a lot of research, I found myself coding a PC game in the next few days,” says Paras, who started building games when he was 12 years old. At that time, Paras did not have a medium to distribute his games.  Google Play solved my problem, and then I started building Android games,” he adds in an interview with yourstory. Currently, all their games are listed on Google .

The startup has three team members, including Sandip and Shailaja Waykole, who take care of the administrative aspect of the business. On paper, the Vovero office is the Waykole’s residence, but this teenager does most of his coding sitting in his dorm room while simultaneously juggling engineering coursework at the college.
