Anna’s Answer

<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);">Key skills of video game designer are creativity; ability to tell a story and work as part of a team; knowledge of programming languages, software, and 3D modeling programs; ability to work many hours seated and looking at a computer monitor; passion and experience in video gaming. You should get an education in computer science or video game design.</span>

<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);">Apart from education, game design experience matters, so be active: participate in hackathons, develop games. </span>

Anna recommends the following next steps:

I do not know what stage you at are. At any point I think, you can use free or inexpensive programs to create simple games at first and begin working on more complex projects after grasping the basics. Each game can be added to your portfolio and count as design experience.
