Game Designer!

When the heck did GBATemp get blogs? I must have been out of the loop for longer than I thought...

Anyhoo, tha main reason I started this is to say I'm going to college for "Communications and New Media: Animation and Gaming Option".

This means I'm on my way to fulfilling my dream of becoming a game designer! I can't wait! :yayds:

I've already taken a class on animation using Flash MX2004, and I was one of the top students. Once I finish my animations and polish them up, I'll put them up on deviantart and/or Newgrounds and post the links.

I have an unfinished project posted here: http://chrisman01.deviantart.com/art/EoS-T...plete-122311239

not very good, but it's more like a rough draft than anything. :teach:

I'll be going to Southern Maine Community College. Anyone else going to college? Where are you going?

Nicee. I like it. Can't wait to see the finished project. I right now.. Watching it at this very moment...

Too young for college...
 
please, take me as your student!

i have this animation in my sig and it doesnt look very good..

and i would also like to take that course when i get to college (if i can)
 
Haha a fellow Game Designer in the making? I'll be off to college as well to get into Game Development....next year lol Good luck with your project.
 
Allright but when all of you guys make it to be big leagues don't forget about GBATemp and try to leak some roms!

LOL yeah right. 1. I don't want to lose my job and 2. do you have any idea what that does to the industry??

For every ROM dl'd, the company would lose $30 to $50, even if that ROM was actually used as a backup for once. And with thousands of people pirating these days, a company is losing literally millions to piracy every week!

(GBAtemp probably isn't the best place to point this out, but...)
 
I want to be a Game Designer, but I don't think I'm cut out for it. I just don't have the time. I do like writing short stories every once in a while. :)
 
I was going to take a 2 year Game Development/Design course next year (or rather, this year, next college year) at a different college (One I'm in at the moment sucks balls) but I decided not to, mainly because of the lack of opportunity there seems to be at the moment in terms of jobs, and the industry in general. Systems Support instead, which will probably give me a wider range of job choice.

Plus I can't actually sit down and dedicate myself, I tend to get distracted and/or bored.

Keep believing that, buddy. Most companies don't even make $30 to $50 for every game sold.

ah you're right. I was thinking of the prices you see in the actual stores.

I should know better than that. Guess I was having a brain fart. :rolleyes:

part of the price is for production costs, part for the team, most for the store, and (at least where I live) part for the State. I'm not sure if games are taxed in other states, and I've never left New England :blink:

    Speaking of meatballs, what's the deal with meatball sandwich? How can people eat those? It's ROUND. Trying to bite those in a sandwich is a challenge. It's easier to eat a burger stacked with toppings. :ninja:
