Program Description

Event Details

A discussion on what it means to make video games professionally. Everyone growing up has had that dream, but there are a lot of challenges and decisions that you need to understand.

This presentation will focus on what it means to get hired at a studio vs. starting your own company, important skills to start to develop, and talking about the downsides and difficulties of being in the Game Industry.

This presentation will not focus on guidance: What colleges to attend, where should I move to, etc. Instead, this will be about the decisions and challenges you should start thinking about if you want to make games for a living. We can also open up the floor for Q&A.
