@lorf151 a game designer is the head of the game. He is the leader. he designs the game. Artists such as concept artists create the characters and the look of the game by drawing and painting. Animators animate the movements of the characters within the game. Programmers have to have a solid foundation in math. Programmers program the game. AI's, game engines, and everything in between. Thats is how Notch created minecraft. he programed it. If you want to be a game design learn programming

Do I REALLY need to know Alot and Understanding of Math or do I have to understand the Basics and What I Learnd from College to become a GameDesginer, because the course classes I've seen, there are no math classes at all. I've seen different kinds of jobs(Artist,Animator,GameDesig­­ner,Progammer) why is there list? I Thought GameDesigner meant all that? Ty
