It is undeniably true that most of us have downloaded more than a couple of games on our mobile phones at some point of time in our life. Games like PUBG mobile, candy crush, Temple run and so many more became so popular that it was almost like an obsession. Have you ever wondered who makes these games? Well, these games are made by game developers who very meticulously develop these much-loved games. To become a game developer you have to study a game development course that teaches you how to develop a game that can be played on a mobile phone,a laptop, or any decided device of your choice. Of course, the concept of the game has to be authentically yours because that is what makes you a successful game developer but the course will teach you the technicalities of game development. It is almost like a writing course that teaches you how to write but at the end of the day what to write completely depends on your skills. Here are some myths about game development courses-

• Game developers do not get jobs is one of the most commonly heard perceptions you will encounter about this profession. This is very delusional as in today's world where almost every generation from kids to old age people is interested in playing games, the need for game developers is more than ever.
• To become a game developer you don't need to study is also something that a lot of people will tell you. A lot of universities across the world offer professional courses in game development. You can do your research and find what is best for you.
• Another myth is that in order to become a good game developer you need to be a very good gamer yourself first. Well, this in fact is a very false statement to make as game development has nothing to do with the ability to play that game well.
