A video game developer is a software developer business or individual which creates video games. A developer may specialize in a certain video game console, or may develop for a number of systems. Video-game developers specialize in certain types of games. Some focus on porting games from one system to another, or translating games from one language to another. Less commonly, some do other kinds of software-development work in addition to games.
