My favorite game is
If it becomes a lifelong career !

It's hard to find someone who hasn't played the game at least once.
Games are increasingly becoming a natural part of our lives.

Programmers, once considered a shunned profession, have emerged as one of the most popular occupations of the 21st century.
[Game programmer] who was pointed at as a [drug manufacturer]
It has become so rare that supply cannot keep up with demand.

It is becoming difficult to discuss promising future technologies such as metaverse, NFT, and VR without games.
When you see IT giant Microsoft spending a huge amount of money to acquire Blizzard,
Anyone can predict that the future of the gaming industry will be even brighter.

How happy would my life be if my favorite game became my lifelong career?
But on the other hand, it is refreshing to see the reality and future of the gaming industry.
And since there is no one to talk to based on neutral experience,
I have a lot of hesitation and worries about whether I should really dedicate my life to gaming .

“They say the IT industry doesn’t require academic background or English skills!”
When I look back at myself for neglecting my college entrance exam studies by making excuses for rumors I heard somewhere,
I'm still worried inside whether this will really be okay, but
But when it comes to actually studying programming, I feel confused and can't focus on my studies.

#1. General introduction to the game industry & game programmers

What does a game programmer do? What do you need to study, what are the pros and cons of the job, what are the future prospects, and what majors and certifications are helpful? We provide essential information for beginners.

#2. Game industry TMI with sincere feelings

I will share with you some game industry TMI that I have felt and learned while working as a game programmer at Krafton and NCSoft. I tried to provide you with neutral and honest information, not for sales purposes.

소개

해킹 공부를 위해 순전히 호기심으로 시작한 게임 개발인데...
시간이 흘러 어느덧 8년차 게임 개발자가 되었습니다.
"이래서 언제 게임을 만들지~?"
한숨 나오는 기초 문법부터 시작해서,
차츰 만들어가는 나만의 게임 세상.
그리고 그 세상에 접속한 다수의 플레이어를 볼 때의 뿌듯함.
공부를 할 수록, MMORPG의 매력에는 헤어나올 수가 없습니다.
제가 느낀 감동을 여러분도 느낄 수 있으면 좋겠네요.

      I am evaluating this from the perspective of someone who has purchased all of Rookiss's lectures. 1. This lecture overlaps a lot with <Game Programmer Job Strategy Guide> and the content is weaker compared to that lecture. 2. While <Game Programmer Job Strategy Guide> describes each aspect and how to study, this lecture is much lighter and vaguer, describing what Rookiss knows about the game programmer job category. If you are an applicant who seriously dreams of becoming a game programmer, you can easily obtain this much information by researching on your own. If you are a student and must purchase one of the two lectures, I recommend purchasing <Game Programmer Job Strategy Guide>.
