Artist

 Whether you're making loading screens, 3D textures, or sprites, you are responsible for what people see when they play the game!

Animator

It's your job to keep things moving in the game - this isn't a photograph!

Designer

Let the creativity flow as you lay out levels, outline goals, and help the project fulfill your dreams!

SFX Technician

What game is a game without some sound effects, music, or narration?

Programmer

You are the noble grunt, cranking out code, compiling, and laying the groundwork for the artsy types!

Writer

Not everyone can read code - sometimes, we really need a wordsmith to spell things out for us!

Software Engineer

If programmers are the construction workers, software engineers are the architects, creating diagrams, optimizing algorithms, and often responsible for testing and debugging. Oh darn, testing a game!

General Developer

For those of you that do a little bit of everything - feel free to give yourself a pat on the back and call yourself a General Developer.
