Wages & Income

Game job salaries depend largely on the length of time you've been employeed along with your position. For example, if you are a head programmer you will make more than just an entry-level programmer.

Game designers make between $40,000 and $90,000 a year. Design a mega-hit game and it will be a lot more than that! Your past successes play a big role in what you can make. Top game designers make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year and get royalties from their hit games.

Game programmers make roughly between $50,000 to $100,000 a year. This is about the same as the average pay for a programmer in the United States.

Game artists make between $40,000 and $70,000 a year. For an artist, thats great pay!

All these wages are based off of working for someone else. If you develop your own games or start your own game company, you can make millions. The oppurtunities for big money still exist, especially in the new mobile games market.
