The field of game design has evolved significantly over the past few decades. The introduction of personal computers and video game consoles made it possible for people to create and play games in their homes, and the popularity of gaming increased exponentially. As technology progressed, so did the games themselves. We can now play war games, Blackjack, grow plants, and so much more. Even so, they became more sophisticated and realistic, with better graphics and gameplay.
Today, game design is a highly competitive industry. There are many different types of games, and designers must be able to create games that are not only fun and entertaining, but also visually appealing and easy to understand. They must also be able to keep up with the latest trends in technology so that their games can take advantage of the latest advances.
