Computer Game Designer

Computer game designers usually work under the direction of a lead designer and may be responsible for drawing components for a new game, writing the stories for those parts or giving practical input about how the game plays. Because the nature of the job is usually collaborative, computer game designers may be given a variety of tasks based on their talents or what needs to be accomplished with game development.
