Game Development 101

by Nikhil Malankar

Ever been fascinated by the game development industry and wanted to have a job in this field? This book serves as a perfect starting point for you as it answers the most commonly asked questions that you might have related to this field. This book is a simple compilation of the most commonly asked questions on my YouTube channel. I came to realise that although I have created tons of videos on my YouTube channel yet there have been instances wherein I have been asked the same questions that have already been covered on my channel. Therefore I thought it would be great to actually combine all the questions into a single book so that all the information is readily available and easily accessible in terms of chapters. My hope with this book is that it helps you know how this industry works and if you are an aspiring game developer then this book may help you to figure out a path for you. I have made sure not to sugar-coat things anywhere and it may feel at times that some parts of the book may seem discouraging for aspiring game developers, however, it is surely a tough industry to make your name in and if it is not presented in the way that it actually is then I would be doing a great disservice to the readers. I can assure you one thing though is that after you read this book you will surely get a proper clarity on how to get into this industry, survive and flourish as the paths presented in this book are proven and tested and I have shared all of these from my personal experiences being in this space.

Video Game Design is a exploring career in this designing industry specially in this modern era which is equipped with the more efficient and advance algorithm. Since the gaming industry is so large, many people that have a dream to make games can do it.


If someone loves to play games, understanding how games worked, and trying to mess with the worked then game to design and development is a perfect career for them.


The book is magnificently crafted and very lucidly narrated with the good amount of research and thorough understanding of the concept specially designed in such a way that a non-readers can also find it easy to learn. Strongly recommend from my side.
