Hey Rainbow, I am currently going through High School and am still trying to decide on a job for after college/school. What classes would you recommend taking to be a game developer for Rainbow Studios like yourselves? And please include College classes also. Please reply Rainbow Developers!

In addition to taking classes, you should play a lot of games; seriously. There is a lot to learn from what other titles are doing, as well as other forms of entertainment and trends in the real world.

Don't think that game development is easy. The maths involved in programming, especially in the physics development, is quite involved. Then there's the graphical side of game development. If you are not artistic or creative in anyway, you will never really be good at it.

I am good at both of those subjects. I'm very artistic (I have sold some pencil drawings for over $800+), and I have always had a natural talent for math.
