Step 4 : Concentrate on the purpose of the game itself.

   Since all of the technical aspects of creating a video game are dealt with, the most important stage begins. Making sure that people like it. You could hire/ask some people to review your game by playing it, or even release a public early demo. As your knowledge grows as to what people hate or like about it, you should be able to improve the experience by changing the game in order to be more fun/horrifying. After all, a game is a failure if nobody likes it.

   Of course, this process also involves fixing glitches or other issues, but by that time you will have enough experience to be able to deal with them.

   Now, all you have to do after it is finished, is to publish it. My preferable scenario would be paying a few percents to a guy who does it for me. Yours might be different. It is your choice.

P.S. If you are interested, here is the latest video of the game which I am developing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ixr02N_NO4 (or not the latest... Just check through my channel)

  1. Creating a video game is not an easy task. You should have to a good knowledge about software. So on above post there is so nice information sharing about how to create a video game. I like it.

    1. Oh, thank you. I am not sure when it will be out, if at all, I should note. Lately I have been drawn towards a diverse range of occupations, of which game development currently is merely one. I am however working on the game, and will most probably continue doing so into the future. For the most part, I was the only person working on it, although I have received a certain level of support from various forums. A number of models were created by a person who volunteered to help, but our relationship soon broke apart due to declining mutual respect. Quite recently a dear friend of mine agreed to help with ideas and characters, but we remained mainly focused on our friendship and not the game. Anyhow, thank you ^_^ I have also begun developing a smaller game designed to help people play music by ear, and that will probably be released much sooner.

    2. You're welcome :) Where can I check out that music app of yours? I'm into music too..will it be out for the Mac or Ps3 or iPhone 4s? And for just one person, you're doing great! I wanted to make a video game too, you know, with great graphics using maya and all and lol it IS tedious... not to mention you have to add the sound and make little changes to the engine and stuff. :( So I just decided to turn it either into a comic or a book (most likely a book).

    1. First of all, blogs don't know anything. They aren't conscious. I imagine you meant that my blog should contain more information ^^ To which I agree. I have spent quite some time researching programing, and intend to update it.
      Anyway, the second part of your post makes little sense.

  10. I agree with all the ideas you have presented in your post. They are very convincing and will definitely work. However, the article is very short for novices. Can you please extend them a little from next time Thanks for the post.

    1. Hmm, you are probably right. I actually spent four hours yesterday rewriting and editing it, as I have learned a lot since I last updated it... While I should have been studying maths, with an exam tomorrow -.- I intend to look into it again after the exams ^^

  12. Dado que todos los aspectos técnicos de la creación de un videojuego se tratan, comienza la etapa más importante. Asegurarse de que la gente le gusta. Usted puede contratar / pedir a algunas personas para revisar su juego, jugando, o incluso lanzar una demo pública temprano. A medida que su conocimiento crece cuanto a lo que la gente odia o le gusta de él, usted debería ser capaz de mejorar la experiencia al cambiar el juego con el fin de ser más divertido / horrible. Después de todo, un juego es un fracaso si nadie le gusta
