I am an automotive Instructor(52 years old) with 37 years in the automotive industry, with a lot of vision and ideas to put an automotive game together after I finish my course in Gaming and Simulation Programming at Devry University. Everything that you say here is a true reality about knowing your "stuff" before applying to a gaming position. I am just starting to learn a lot of gaming principles, and it may take me another few years before I can do a demo to demonstrate to companies. How about Torque Game Builder engine, is this a good game engine to start developing your first game? Great site!!! I will recommend this site to my to classmates, so they can post. THAK YOU!

长时间以来,游戏产业不允许新的血液加入,因为每个职位都要求申请人有2年以上的经验. 但是现在是加入游戏产业的最好的时机. 因为研发队伍的急剧增长, 有经验的人很难找了, 所以越来越多…
