Important Note: A degree does not instantly warrant you a job at a game company and you may initially dabble on jobs that are more into graphic design or programming before you finally become a Game Designer.
Coming up with new ideas for games is easy. The difficult part is translating it into code and then ensuring that it’s playable. Game Designers need a keen eye for detail, as even one line of code gone wrong can spell disaster.
Will you need to learn to code? Yes. Will you need to draw? Yes. No, don’t run away, come back! It may all seem daunting, but a Game Designer needs to learn many skills to save time and produce the best possible product.
Sure, everyone LOVES playing games, it’s a ton of fun. But what about actually creating them? It’s a whole different ballgame when it comes to game designing, and only talented and passionate people make it big here.
