Well... she seems happy.
Lol who doesnt want to become a game designer/developer after watching this vid.
even tho a education is important, the best way to start is by figuring out what kind of field you want to work with (coding, animation, grapics, music) and start doing it as a hoby, if you like working with it, it will become natural to you to fool around with after a while. and you'll learn alot by just having fun and exploring your ideas :) by the time you are able to go to the school you want to go to, you may allready have learned half of it by yourself! never doubt yourself :D
I once had a job with a boss who played WoW with me. He was a total nerd into comics, games, movies, it was awesome. That was the best job I ever had.
I work as a game developer. I do both programming and artwork. People think it's a glamorous job where you get paid a ton of money, but it's basically like any other job in IT, except a bit more creative and longer hours sometimes. But it's a lot of fun. It has been my dream since I was a kid to create my own games.
"Hey you know why the dark elves to be blue? Because I wanted them to be blue." What a badass way of introducing yourself.
passion, always a great & attractive thing to see in a person
Right now I'm at the point in my life where it's like I love video games and want to design them but what if I fail or what if this isn't what I want it's so hard because the thought of failing and being a nobody with no job or money scares me and while my mom says I'm too young to worry about it I'm still looking at the fact that I'll be in college in a few more years (which goes by very fast) another thing that worries me is when I get out of college what will I do college is all fine and dandy but after college where do I go how do I officially become a game designer
Programmers do the coding only.
The Designers do the DRAWINGS.
You're 29 years old, didn't you learn C++ in high school?
"Do you know why the dark elves are blue?
I love her enthusiasm. Totally makes the movie!
I started when I was 12 and now I'm 17, START. RIGHT. NOW.
There's a lot of good people, lots of talented kids. I suggest knowing what to expect before you even go to college because things are going to get competitive and they'll start weeding out kids who don't know what they're doing.

this is really inspiring, at first I was scared of pursing video game development because I heard it was a bit difficult finding a job in that area but watching this video, I feel like I should go and follow this path because I love playing video games like everyone else out there
I am currently going to college to be a Video game designer and graphic designer and came across this video while looking for resources for a term paper. I just wanted to say thank you for your story. It helped me out quite a bit actually.
Most video game designers have bachelor's degrees in English, art, computer science, or related areas. In addition, many colleges offer video game specific degrees (such as ITT Tech, DeVry or The Art Institute, and many others). Good luck with your career pursuits!
My Dream Job Right Here
That's so inspiring.
Ahh, Morrowind... Brings back memories.
