Research the video game industry and what its mostly comprised of. There are plenty of different careers but mainly for making games chances are あなた want to aim at becoming a video game designer. Understand what exactly video game designers do on a daily basis. What are some challenges they may face, what skills are necessary, etc. What exactly do あなた want to do when あなた become a video game designer? Yes, あなた want to デザイン games, but what kind of games? What sort of audience do あなた want to aim for? Who will あなた work with (because believe me, video game designers work in pairs または groups; the workload of doing it alone is close to impossible unless you're trying to become an indie game designer) and how are あなた going to get your game out to the public? I would also gain an understanding of the history of video games in general. I recommend 読書 Rules of Play: Game デザイン Fundamentals. It is essentially the best textbook revolving around video game デザイン that I know personally. Keep up with what's going on in the gaming industry. If あなた want to デザイン games, look at what's been done before. There are tons of games out there that are all successful in their own way; distinguish them from one another and figure out what makes this enjoyable for someone and what あなた may または may not like about it.

i also recommend if あなた plan on producing a series with all sorts of characters to research character デザイン from appearance to personality to portray in-depth characters
lol and shine bright あなた did, this was real helpful. I mostly wanted to work for Valve または 任天堂 または if possible make my own company. I had several games in my imaginiation/on paper that I wanted to work on if ever I had the chance.
Look for a Digital Design, または other Creative Tech uni course paper.
I'm currently studying Digital デザイン at uni and game development is part of it.
I will say though, do your research before-hand. Many people out there go "I wanna make games for a living!" but then あなた actually study it.....and many are put off like myself. If あなた want to do it, cool, but be prepared that it's not as fun as people would think it would be. It's extremely frustrating and tedious work, but the result makes it worth it, so good luck.

I'm already frustrated and stressed with my journalism course which I do not like one bit, so I figured why not get frustrated and do tedious work for something I actually want to make a career out of and something I have a passion for..
Fair enough hahah. It's not for everyone even if the passion for video games is there. Video games are a massive part of my life and I always thought I would have a career in it but found it just wasn't for me, despite the passion. So yeah, I hope it all goes well for you! Just do your research before あなた pay for a course so あなた know what you're in for.
