The video game industry is very large, but analyzing all aspects of video games is better, because many would think that it is only designing, programming and having the idea, if not also has to do with the costs of the final product. video games are not only for one platform, many times they are for several and depending on the aspects that that platform contains, it is not the same to make a video game for a PC, console or smartphone.

Something very important to be able to work at home is to have a good internet connection, since this is essential, due to different things, in order to take the classes, as is my case, I have to be zoomed in to see my teachers as If the class was normal, I also have to have a browser open to carry out the activities or upload them. The point is that in your house your relatives may also make a home office or they may only be Netflix or YouTube who are applications that demand enough broadband it is difficult to work like this.
