Game development and programming have a lot of overlap, but they are distinct practices. Game programmers create the game itself from a coding perspective. Game developers work with programmers during this process but are more closely involved with the game design and conceptual development.
The first step to becoming a game programmer is often earning a bachelor's degree. Video games have become significantly more complex over the past few decades. What was a blockbuster game in the year 2000 is now smaller and less complex than many mobile phone games. As a result, companies need people who have a thorough understanding of game design and programming languages. You'll have a chance to build skills and learn key concepts through a bachelor's degree program, which is one way to signal to an employer that you have what it takes to be a game developer.
