Keep in mind that your job might look bad in your resume. Given the bad rep gaming companies have, only people that are inexperienced/not that good, or clueless go to the industry.
I know you have to start your career somewhere, but keep that in mind.
- NateDad 14y agoUh, as a developer of 13 years who has never been in the gaming industry... I question your generalization. I have never seen or heard of anyone saying game programmers are inferior or clueless in my professional career. Granted, I work in Boston, so things may be different here, but it's really not a characterization I at all recognize.
- MartinCron 14y agoYeah, I wouldn't look at someone with big-game-studio experience as an inferior, just perhaps a little naive and might need a little calibration as to what a sustainable work pace actually looks like.
- kragen 14y agoGaming companies have a rep for being a bad place to work that nevertheless attract top-notch talent. I've been programming for a living for since 1997, and this is the first time I've heard someone say that game hackers are "not that good or clueless".
