To answer your question directly, look into “level design” and “game design.”
These are the jobs that are more involved in the design process and coding.
However if you’re more artistic, 3D Animator, lighting artist, 3D modeler, rigger, and concept artists are some choices that are more creative in the industry.
There are many resources on how to learn them and a lot of supplemental education that you can apply for later in life.
Start by researching online of the specific job titles such as “game designer” or “3D animator”, and start practicing the fundamentals in those fields.

Apps that let you play games for cash are always going to lean in favor of the house, using the allure of gambling to maintain a consistent profit. But hey, instead of just playing, why not consider working for one of these big-shot companies once you're legally old enough? Take a peek at the apps on your phone and find out who owns them. There's always the chance of finding an open position at major companies like Zynga, Nintendo, or Pokemon. If you're into creating games, there are degrees in programming where you can learn to develop or troubleshoot games. The University of Pennsylvania, for example, offers such a program to undergraduates (just to clarify, I have no affiliation with them).

Greetings; First of all you want to make a career in playing video games or making video games?
For first choice the simplest way is being a video game content creator. YouTube and Twitch are the best examples.
If you enjoy playing games and enjoy reading and writing about games, being a video game journalist is best choice.
But if you want to begin and create games you need to know what part of creating or designing a game you want to be. There are many categories in making a video game; like level designer, art director, animation, character design etc.
My suggestion is in first step discover your favorite genre and favorite video game you play. Then look into credits and see how many people are involved in making that game then imagine yourself being one of them, which one you want to be ?
