GICG037: Do video game programmers get to contribute to the game design?

This week's question is from Derek, who asks "I’m interested in both game programming and general game design, my talents lying mostly with programming. Do game programmers often get much input in the game design outside of simply how the game functions? I assume this would largely depend on the size of the team. But I’m just wondering if it’s likely I’ll get to participate in both areas." LINKS FROM THIS EPISODE Thanks for listening. Email me if you'll be at GDC 2016, let's connect!
