I'd suggest picking up something popular and spending good amount of time in churning out projects. I see that you have Lua on your Github, but since you're desperately looking for work I would advice you to pick up ROR or Django (if you like web dev) or iOS / Android (which might be a good fit with your interest in games). Lastly, I've heard good success stories of people who've been to dev bootcamps (such as Hacker School etc.) which excel in getting you competent enough for an entry level job in a tech company. A simple Google search would help you find a couple near your area. Save up for it and consider giving that a shot as well. All the best!
