Hello! I am very passionate about Video Game Development but unfortunately there are no institutes teaching about Video Games in Pakistan. And I am also a poor lad. My mom earns a very little amount. She teaches in a school. I can't afford going USA for studies. Anyways I have found an institute which teaches short term courses! It's Aptech! It offers many short term courses. I want experts to tell me that which courses will be perfect for Android Video Game Development. Here's the list:

Note: I know nothing about game development at the moment. But still I am a Hardcore Gamer! And always modding games to make them as realistic as possible by Graphical and Physical means.




Regards,
Mirza Taimoor Baig

You have already told me that sir. But i met the chairman of administration of Aptech! He said that Aptech ACCP Prime Diploma is very useful! He even said that a student completed ACCP Prime with great marks even before completing Metric and he got job offer from Mindstorm studios!

Bro job mlna na mlna is all on your skills. Koe kyn kahega ke don't come to my institution, go on the net and save money. Grow up a little. In the end the decision is yours. Imo, you can learn far more by just absorbing what's on the internet.

Again don't depend on others. There's a ton of info on the net. Start by understanding the game development process. What side you want to work on Animation, Modeling, Level designing, Engine Programming blah blah blah, there's lots of stuff. Start by understanding what these areas are and what has to be done. Then select an area or two and start diving in. Search for online tutorials regarding that area.

For example if you chose modeling/animation start practicing 3ds Max/ Maya/Zbrush. If you chose level designing download game engines and design levels on them. If you chose engine programming start learning programming and then dive in OpenGL and other low level stuff. Read books etc.

At this point I would say go for a technical studies first with a CS degree. It's true you can learn a lot from online yourself but degree itself has worth and opens up many career opportunities 'JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE A DEGREE'

Start practicing game programming through small project and developing small demos. Dont go to much deep into the 3D modelling and animation. I would say avoid that for now and focus on technical part.

Search what skills companies ask for in a game programmer and improve yourself in those areas. Start working on a portfolio now and it doesnt need to be a complete game. Just write small modules and improve them later.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
