Class Summary

So, Games in Community is finished. A very interesting class, and I learned quite a bit.

Most of what I learned was about game designers. We talked to multiple in class.

I learned that game designers make "dozens of dollars" from their games, and that there's almost no way to make a living as a game designer without creating a viral hit like Settlers. But I also learned that you don't need to make money from your games. You can make games as a hobby.

I also learned that there isn't a huge barrier to entry to the board game market. If you like making games, and are willing to put the time and effort in, you can probably make games. Publishers are friendly (Well, why not, it's not like designers are going to cost them much). But, essentially, if I wanted to make games, I could.

In conclusion, an awesome class. I love board games.
