Q. I wanna go to school for game design but MyCAA does not offer it. They have web designer/graphic designer but nothing close to game designing. is there something i can do that will transfer as credits for game design?
A. Software Development (aka Computer Programming, Software Engineering, Game Development). As a last resort a Computer Science major if your school offers nothing closer to game development. You can't design software (especially games) for programmers to create if you don't know how software is created.
How should i get into gaming design and programming?
Q. I am currently a student at a vocational school working in construction. I would like to try to work in gaming design and programming on the side but am unsure about where to start. I cant draw on the computer very well and am more interested in designing the layout and sprite ai. Where can i start and are there any free programs i should use?
A. A good place to start is gamemaker. Its free to use for most of the features, and it's probably the most basic step in games. There are many tutorials on its website (www.yoyogames.com) that can teach you to get started. If you wanna try something more advanced, use Blitzbasic or visual basic 2010 express. Just look up tutorials online. Also, don't worry about drawing, that has very little to do with game design and programming.
