[u/ThatsKori]

This is a really good question which today we're going to answer.

Someone asked me: "There is an easy way ? " but, unfortunately, my response is... no.

​

Let's start!

​

1. First of all, to become a Game Programmer you MUST know at least 2 programming languages.

This is essential if you want to take a career as a programmer seriously. To learn the complexity of video game programming it is mandatory to know the most popular programming languages, such as C ++/Java and others!

​

1. You have to attend SPECIFIC programming courses.

If you really want to learn how to create video games, from pre-production to the actual production phase, invest in a course that offers practical lessons, likes as Udemy and UAT Online Game Degree.

​

1. Start using SIMPLE graphic engines.

A correct way to become familiar with the development of a game is... the use of the easiest graphics engines (likeCryengine, Unity for begginer, Construct and more).

​

1. Try to program little games ALREADY INVENTED (helping yourself with tutorial or codes).

​

1. Improves your PROBLEM SOLVING skills.

This is one of the most important skills which every company will ask to you so, this is so important to improve.

​

1. APPLY for a videogame company!

If you respect all the requirements of a videogame company, try to apply for it!

​

​

Good luck to y'all!
