Do you? I want to see the responses. And yes, this was based off a Poll in the CCC, only I clicked the "Poll" Button instead of the "Topic" Button.

Probably not...

I'll make games with Game Maker and other simple makers and no more.

But who knows.

Can't decide on either no or maybe.

I want to be a game designer, but I don't want to be a part of the industry. Nothing I make is good enough to sell, anyways.

Most likely not, I started working with Gamemaker for fun. I like making games, but I'm not serious about it.

It's plausible, but probably not. It's not where I'll start, which probably will be the software industry in general.

Nope.

Although I'd like to have an overall idea of the mechanics involved in it.

Yes, but I don't want to do any of the work. Hence, I shall become a lowly employee of some company and be one of those small names that scrolls past quickly in the credits sequence.

No. I'm under education to become a surgeon. I have no intentions of becoming a game developer of any kind.

Not the game industry, not the software industry, just no.

Trying to NOT be one of the endless hordes of teenagers during the 2000s who decide they're going to become VIDYA GAEM MAKERS and think that with all the other thousands of kids wanting this job, they'll be doing anything but being a code monkey.

Maybe I'll be a software developer, and maybe I'll be a video game developer, but I really don't know if I could do either. Making games is real fun, but being forced to make certain games that I really don't agree with (like how UbiSoft killed Rayman) isn't something I'd want to get into. On top of that, software programming isn't really something I'd like to do either, because it just seems so boring. Although, I'm far more likely to become a game developer.

In fact, I was actually considering that it might be a good thing for me to teach programming (probably game dev) at a college/university some day. Of course, I don't know if that will happen either.

I set my heart on becoming a professional computer game designer at a very early age and nothing is going to turn me away from it.

What does the Indie option mean anyway?

There's a job which you design the video game, not program, design.
Someone else then makes it.
