(NOTE: It is also important to learn game development tools and actually make games yourself. The David Perry Challenge is not intended to replace these important steps to becoming a game designer, it's purpose is to add an expert understanding of popular game design and history to these skills. Basically, if you want to become a game designer, you should make your own games AND analyze games that have already been made, especially games that have been successful.)
