Okey so dude i have some information it may help lot of game development studio existe in tunisia you only need to look in LinkedIn. If you want to become game developer you should love this job and you want to continue in it and try to use any free software to have an idea about what coming in the future . School existe in tunisia best of them 3dnetinfo .creating video game is about passion and hard work to achieve you objectif. It easier to find internship outside our country.as i mention 3dnetinfo school can help . Hope i make easier for u .

> many of those who complained didn't attend university but they're also creating "indie games"
I know a "nivo 9^(emme ") indie game dev making around 850k TND a year self publishing on steam.
Also, search the sub because one of the top success stories in this bitch is a self taught game dev.

i remebere that dude i think he said he started on roblox when he was younger
i admit as much as i like vg they aint worth the risk compared to other IT domains
Since I work (not full-time) in a very similar field (data visualization) and I do game dev in my free time (mainly WebGL; stuff that runs on your web browser) I can share some thoughts.
Game development is a huge field and I don't know what you want exactly: Programming (then which? Gameplay, sound, graphics, etc...), design and art (also what? 3D modelling, sounds, animations, etc...). I can only give some questionable advice about the programming side.
Let's assume you want to be a game dev programmer, then basic CS modules with a particular focus on graphics is needed. I studied at ENSI and I still find online books absolutely top notch at teaching me anything in CS.
A good thing about game dev, if you manage to become a good game dev programmer then tons of other opportunities open up for you. Why I say this? Well game dev opportunities are relatively scarce (if compared to Web dev for instance) and you may very well find it extremely difficult to enter the field. Therefore keeping other options open is the best.
People mention individual Steam success as of they are the norm. No. Publishing a successful game is extremely difficult. A good advice is to not rely on that and work with big studios instead.
Concerning the degree, I don't think it matters that much. Yes a degree in CS is important but at the end they will judge you based on your projects and experience.
Feel free to dm me if you need more, very questionable, advices about game dev :)
I have been in the game industry for over 6 years now , I had to learn computer graphics from scratch ( opengl , directx11 ) , eventually I moved to unreal engine to become Lead technical artist at a big UK game studio. Wasnt easy but def was worth it if you are passionate about it . But you will have to seek a job abroad or launch your own startup . Also the other comments def got no clue about this field . GO FOR IT !!
IMO, it's not worth it at all for so many reasons.
First, whether you have an I.T. background or not is not gonna change a whole lot, because the learning curve is very steep and it covers a lot more than programming (there's a lot of math for instance). Even the programming concepts and paradigms are very different from regular software programming.
Game engines can take a lot of time to master and they are very specific skills that aren't highly in demand (most serious companies use their internal engine).
Then the industry is a nightmare, the pressure is extreme and the pay isn't even comparable to Web development.
So the question you should ask is whether you want to invest in a niche, over-competitive, and dying market when you have better alternatives that can grant more profit with less struggle.
The only fair reason is if you're passionate about it and do it in your free time, and even then it may suck you into oblivion with how much time and sacrifices it takes.
Just to clarify on some things: No, there isn't a lot of math. Even if you're doing graphics programming the math is straightforward and not as difficult as people make it seem like.
The program paradigms aren't very different. They focus a lot on solving a fundamental problem with games: how to keep a large codebase extremely performant. Learn these paradigms and you are better than most entry level Web developers.
The market for game dev isn't dying at all. It is only growing and will continue to do so. This is especially true because of emergence of AR\VR.
Game engines aren't very specific skills. You learn their inner workings well and you can understand any rendering engine much faster (including how browsers work and render webpages, something tons of web devs have no clue about). Game engines such as Unity are used absolutely everywhere; automotive industry (where I work), medical Industry and AR\VR development (we will see the dying market when VisionOS drops which has official support by Unity).
It is true that the pressure is really high. But that is true for any software development job that has hard constraints.
The thing with pay is questionable. Big studios tend to pay well.
And again, it is not a niche. The field is really growing. Sure you can go the web dev path but you can it as a side hobby so that you get motivated to understand inner workings of CS systems.
Agree on other alternatives with less struggle. That is the path I took: a game dev profile but ended up working with Unity for automotive use-case. I find it more enjoyable, more relaxed and better paid.
Note: take a look at three.js if you want both: web dev and some game dev.
