What's involved in Game Development

For example, Game Development is made up of 3 parts - Planning, designing and programming (They might have called differently, but that's what I call them).
Planning involves Game Designers, Producers etc. who starts by having an idea and then share it with the team. You can count concept and storyboard artists in them too, although they can belong to the second category too.

Designing involves creating the art asset for the actual game. This is not an easy task and certainly not a one man task. AAA studios generally have different teams for modelling, texturing, rigging, lighting, animation, motion capture etc. etc. In startups (like ours) do it with two or more people.
Programming involves writing code for the game and is also not a one man task. AAA studios have different team for coding in-game logic, physics, UI, memory management, debugging, network back-end etc.

I am not saying that it's not possible to create game all by yourself. I did create few games by my own. Another example would be Temple Run, it's first version was created by 2-3 persons only. My point here is you shouldn't try to learn everything in start. You'll eventually learn it with time and experience.

Placement

Companies like Zynga are mostly interested in network programmers who can write logics for their back-ends (acc. to the job offers I've got in the past), it's an essential part of an MMORPG, but certainly you wouldn't be interested in it. Demand for low-level graphic programmer, who have knowledge of a game engine and a modelling tool both is also good.

Game Engines

Now if we come to coding game-engines, well you can definitely create yours, if you're really focused and can spend 5+ years working on the same thing. For that you need to know low-level graphics libraries such as openGL, directX etc., you must also know everything about a general game-physics and let me tell you, working on collision will itself take 6-12 months. Working on UIs and Fonts are pain in itself. Did I forget about Sound Codecs and cross-platform code? Easy enough?

Colleges and courses about Game Development

I know about few game development institute which teach you every aspect about game development. One is DSK Supinfogame, where one of my friend have studied. Few animation studios run courses for game development too such as Virtual Voyage, Maac etc.
