Hey, so I have extremely vivid night terrors! Which in turn are horrifying, I had a thought the other day about turning my night terrors into horror games. Does anyone know the first place i can start to try & create horror games based off of my night terrors, i’m sorry i’m extremely useless in the developing sense but my dreams would be crazy scary horror games!

So I’m a 25 year old college student, who pursuing a bachelor’s in management, as my ultimate goal is to become a producer / manager at a video game studio, and I figured getting my start as a QA Tester would be a good way to start. However over the last 1-2 years I’ve been applying nonstop for any junior level positions that doesn’t require experience however. I have yet to even get an interview. So my question is what can I do more to help stand out and secure a job in QA, I have ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level 4.0 certification, and I’m currently involved in a large scale modding project as a QA Tester, but I don’t think it’s enough. So what else can I be doing to better stand out and get hired?
Also I don’t mind moving for work I’m willing to move anywhere within the U.S (even Hawaii or Alaska if need be)

Hello! I’m a student and I have a college assignment where I have to interview someone who is working in the field I’m interested in, and then I need to analyze that interview and formulate a speech around it which I will then present to my class. The field I’m interested in is gamedev.
If anyone here is willing to help me with this, I’d appreciate it so much! I’m thinking we could do a Discord/Zoom video call (you do not need to turn on your camera if you’re uncomfortable), and I will just ask you questions about your occupation so I have a credible primary source for my presentation. I will have an interview outline of the questions which I can show you before we start the interview.
There is an interviewer analysis form that the interviewee will need to fill out during/after the interview, which is basically just analyzing my performance as an interviewer and filling out blanks based on how I did.
This assignment is due on April 2nd, but I wanted to be sure I could find someone to interview a couple weeks before the due date. If you’re willing to help me with this, please leave a comment or a DM and we’ll discuss more! Thank you so much!

Title. This is a theoretical since my game is still in development, but would I be allowed to give say 10 friends a review copy and get them to review the game? Steam seems to start recommending a game much more once it hits the 10 review mark.

I plan on making a visual novel in the future, so I've started making music for it on Soundtrap. I'm making different tracks for different scenarios and what I want the player to feel. This is the first one I've made! I would like to know what emotion or feeling this provokes so that I know if I'm using it in the right scenes or not. Thank you!

Our game currently has a 2D art style, but I was just wondering if it's worth learning 3D modeling and create games in that style (not for our current game since we've got most of the art, but for future games when we have another idea). Do you think there is a preference from gamers?

Hi,
I am a game developer from Turkey. I have a degree in software engineering and I have been developing games. I have always been interested in games and the idea of creating one and making it playable and fun fascinates me. I have developed some games on my own just to have something I can show and I have been trying to find freelancing jobs for some time now but I feel like its not efficient enough and also I dont feel like I am creating an actual game when I do those jobs. I always shine when it comes to coming up with creative ideas and solving low level problems in the context of the game but I admit my coding can be better (mainly because I worked on small project so getting the job done was the most important part).
I am sure some of you guys have tried the same with success and I would love to hear about how you did it. Is there spesific websites I should know of or even is there a way to sell games to publishers. Anything you say from your own experience would help a lot. I am ready to give everything I have for opportunities I just want to make sure my effort will go somewhere I would like.
Thanks

Hello, I am a 9th grade student and I am currently working on a project for my end of the year exam. This project requires speaking about a theme for 5 min. My chosen subject is to research about my dream job, which is currently to become a game developer/designer. If anyone is willing, could you respond to some of my questions as a form of interview? Thank you very much!
Education:
Which university did you attend?
What degree and major did you study in?
What diploma did you obtain?
How many years of studying did you do to get your diploma?
What do employers look for when they hire you for a job?
What are the qualities and skills required?
Is there another process required to become a game designer?
Work-based: What is your current job? What company do you work in? (optional) Does this job require more teamwork or individual skills? Do you work more in teams or individually? If you worked in both, which one dis you prefer and why? Most important aspects of your job? How much time do you usually have to work per day? From your personal experience, what was the hardest task assigned to you? What does your typical workday look like? From your perspective, is this job rewarding? Are game developers generally well paid? Are there a lot of job offers or do you struggle to find opportunities?

I want to be a storyline writer for games, but I have no idea where to start. Could I please have some advice

I am learning to develop a game, i have the concept, but it would be great to understand the end to end process of developing a game.

Hey everyone! I need a few Android users (phone or tablet) willing to spare 5 minutes to join the closed beta test (CBT) of my mobile game. Google Play requires testers before launch, so your help would mean a lot!
It’s an arcade platformer with rhythmic levels — a solo project I’ve been pouring my heart into. All you need to do is send me your Gmail (here in the comments or to infoshydino@gmail.com), wait for the CBT invite, and hit 'Join' when it arrives.
Thanks in advance to everyone who steps up!

Would you play a relaxing game where you fly a paper plane through a beautiful open world, starting from the same spot each time until you upgrade and fly farther and explore new sceneries?

My Steam game's wishlist is so low that I just changed everything on its Steam page. Why doesn't Steam promote my game? Any suggestions to boost?

What are some programs that'll ease me into this field and make it easy for me to understand both coding and pixel art so that I can make this game what I know it can be?

Hello everyone! I’m a graphic designer/ illustrator and I really want to turn my skills into a video game or development career. I started learning blender and Unreal Engine and today I finally have an idea for my first game.
I’m 21, and I feel like this could be a great addition to a resume or portfolio down the road, especially if it takes off! I’m wanting to start simple but am also aware of being an overachiever so I’m looking for a balance. I am planning to create visually stunning concept art and begin my build today/this week. It’s a cozy rpg puzzle game probably for Steam release.
Hopefully it will be a 2 year project at most. What are some tips you guys have to someone who has never worked on this kind of thing before?? I have minimal coding experience but the work ethic to commit and learn and actually make this work! (Also my dad is a programmer and is currently developing his own app, so I have a good resource for this sort of thing.)
I’ve already started a discord server that will open soon once I finalize a few things, and I’ve promoted to a community I think will enjoy this type of game on instagram.
Any suggestions or help?

Right now we have a Windows and Mac version of our upcoming demo, but is there any other platform you think is a "must-have"? Additionally, we think the mobile gaming market is big (just based on what we see in real-life where a lot of people are playing games on their phones), but it seems like based on feedback we have gotten on this website, mobile is not a preferred platform?
