What Game Testers Really Do Every Day (game testers) There is a somewhat pervasive myth going around that game testers are not needed to work on a regular basis in the office and that they get to make a great deal of money while playing games and telling people if they are having fun while doing so. The truth though is that game testers are just like any other 9-5 workers. They get up each day, go to the office and work on a project as outlined for them by bosses that are tight deadlines. They must operate games rather than play them, showing that they can ignore the fun factor and go through a series of very carefully outlined processes to test the game for any potential bugs. This process makes it so that game testers have one of the most boring and mind numbering jobs in the industry. However, it also makes them highly important to the process of creating a game that is fun and that works exactly as it was meant to work. For anyone interested in becoming a full time game tester, the process starts by making sure they are ready for everything the career asks of them and much more. The Career in a Nutshell The career of a game tester is basically one that involves learning how to analyze something that is supposed to be entertainment. You will work closely with various different builds of a game, writing down every bug that you encounter as you play the game and preparing various reports that will tell the other people involved in the creation of the game what you have encountered. You will follow close protocols for how you test and report bugs and then you will start it all over again whenever a new build is released. You may spend hours working on one menu or days on one level and when the deadlines get tight, you may be expected to work long hours. However, what draws so many people to becoming a game tester is that you will generally get to work in the same offices as the people behind the biggest and best new games on the market and learn from the best testers and programmers around. In due time, you will gain valuable experience and work your way toward a career beyond a game tester, as a programmer, designer, artist, or even producer. How many real game testers do you know?
