The Industry
We end the semmester talking about the game industry and how to make a career in this space. This lecture is honest, so be prepared for some tough talk.
Many students leave this lecture thinking that I am talking them out of working in game development. That is not exactly true. But I am trying to make sure that the people that go into game development are those that really want to do it. Because this industry is not for the faint of heart.
To complement this lecture, we recommend the following reading and/or viewing:- Fullerton, Chapter 15 (Optional)
- Game Development Is Like Being a Musician (Optional)
- Failing to Fail: The Spiderweb Software Way (Optional)
