So this is how games are made!

Games are in everyday life and keep people entertained/occupied, but what some people don't know is how games are made.

Game ideas are created by people’s imagination, made into detailed stories, then created in computerised animation. Characters are made first. They are created through drawings/sketchings, important characters are drawn and improved until creators are satisfied.

Then scans are taken or people's movements are captured then mapped from a computer into realistic motion in the actual game, it is pretty amazing how you can do that in the process of making a game.

All worlds, terrains, maps in each and every game texture is made up of polygons. A polygon is basically areas which need texture to be applied to it, to give it a more realistic look. The method that is most used for this is texture mapping.

Texture mapping is basically an image of texture to be applied to a polygon, gaming equipment,(e.g gaming console etc), have a special chip and memory, that store the special information needed for texture mapping. They are then applied to each polygon in the game world to give it more realistic environment.

Not noticed or seen by gamers/players, but is everything that controls the game, is a code. Codes are a set of computer instructions to make a game work. Most games are with custom codes, based on C programming. Code engines are used to make the complex codes needed for the polygon's texture.

Then when the game is finished, it goes through hard testing and review, any problems or bugs in the system, it would be fixed right away. Then finally put through distribution.
