Servant of the Lord and 3D Dreamer, thanks for your honest answers and feedback. I know that I have a long way to go in developing video games. Just one thing I am not new to technical/artistic work. I have been working with 3D and motion graphics for entertainment, tv commercials, and some websites for around 9 years. That said but if I am entering the video game industry I have to learn to take critiques and learn from that feedback (specially in the iterative game design process).

I am fairly new to video game development (around 6 months), here you can see the game I was on as a Level Designer, I recorded a development diary for the Level Design process.

I agree with you that the actual path will be different for everyone. I wrote it initially for my personal guide and to help others, and I encourage to make your own paths. I have mostly included only books, online tutorials since in my country there are no places where you can learn video game development. (if not probably I would have taken those classes instead of advertising).

I have been following this guide I compiled and so far it's good. 6 months ago I didn't understand how to program a Hello World (working in 3D, After Effects is completely different from programming, but the transition wasn't that hard). But with this I started with some interactive online Javascript tutorials and then learn C#, prior to that learn the fundamentals of programming.

Once again thanks for the feedback, maybe I felt it a little harsh in the beginning, but I read again and in the blog of Lion Inn Games I will put more about development diaries of the game I am making than trying to teach real knowledge (at least till I really published some games). And I will rename the post to Indie Game Development Resources, sounds better than Roadmap.
