1. What qualifications and knowledge to get into the general gaming industry specifically designing and programming? ie. classes, schools
Submitted by Gokwai
Hmm. As far as design goes, there's no schooling that's specifically required. I've heard that there's an Academy of Game Design out there, but I haven't met any working designers personally that come from there. As far as design goes, it's best to have the following to show:
- short examples of your writing, especially dialogue
- a game or module that you have designed to completion
- programming and/or scripting experience/schooling
