The Roadmap to Becoming a Game Developer

BECOMING A PROGRAMMING AND GAME ENGINE DEVELOPER

First of all to become a game developer you need to know how to write code. For that, you need to learn C# (C sharp). This language is mainly used in game development. The next thing I am going to be talking about is one of the most important pieces of tech that you should be familiar with as a game developer. I am talking about the “GAME ENGINE”.

A game engine is a software framework primarily designed for the development of video games, and generally includes relevant libraries and support programs. The “engine” terminology is similar to the term “software engine” used in the software industry.

As for the game engine, you can use “UNITY” which can be used to create games for platforms like PC, Playstation along with Android, IOS as well as AR/VR.
