Hello,
A game designer is the creative driver responsible for bringing a game to life. They are generally a cross between a writer, artist and programmer. So it is like a blend of different people altogether. For this you need to be talented and be enthusiastic enough to learn things. Video game designers typically have a bachelor's degree in game design, computer engineering, or computer science which takes four to five years to complete. Courses in a game design degree program may include project management, integrated video design and technology, game prototyping and level design.
So you need to have calculation, mental ability, creativity along other things to develop good games. Working in the video game industry is one of the most rewarding careers on the planet, but it is also extremely challenging and often requires specific skills and even personalities to be successful.
Game designer is just as hard as getting into any other career, but with added competition and the need to be constantly fresh and relevant. However, by applying yourself and keeping your long-term goals in mind, it can be a rewarding and fulfilling career as easy to progress through as anything.
Hope this helps!!
