A Brief Overview of Video Game Design
A student at Mercer County Community College in NJ, Adam Porcher enjoys a wide variety of hobbies that include writing poetry, playing musical instruments, and studying Japanese culture. Currently a computer science undergraduate, New Jersey-based Adam Porcher also enjoys learning about game design.
Game design is an expansive field, one that involves creative writing, graphic design, and computer programming. The designers begin with a concept, asking who the target audience is and how much the project will cost.
The concept is then executed by a development team which, depending on the size of the project, may consist of roles like level designers, scriptwriters, and content artists. As soon as the collective output of the team members is assembled in a designated software platform, computer programmers then generate the necessary commands to allow players to interact with these elements. A video game, of course, will have to go through numerous beta versions before it's ready to be released in the market.
