Game art design is a subset of game development involving the process of creating the artistic aspects of video games. Video game art design begins in the pre-production phase of creating a video game. Video game artists are visual artists involved from the conception of the game who make rough sketches of the characters, setting, objects, etc. These starting concept designs can also be created by the game designers before the game is moved into actualization. Sometimes, these concept designs are called "programmer art". After the rough sketches are completed and the game is ready to be moved forward, those artists or more artists are brought in to develop graphic designs based on the sketches.
The art design of a game can involve anywhere from two people and up. Small gaming companies tend to not have as many artists on the team, meaning that their artist must be skilled in several types of art development, whereas the larger the company, although an artist can be skilled in several types of development, the roles each artist plays becomes more specialized.
A game's artwork included in media, such as demos and screenshots, has a significant impact on customers, because artwork can be judged from previews, while gameplay cannot.
Artists work closely with designers on what is needed for the game.
Tools used for art design and production are known as art tools. These can range from pen and paper to full software packages for both 2D and 3D art. A developer may employ a tools team responsible for art production applications. This includes using existing software packages and creating custom exporters and plug-ins for them.
Video game art development began when video games started to be created. When game development started, the game artists were also the programmers, which is often why very old games like Pong lack any sort of creativity and were very minimalistic. It was not until the early 1980s that art began to become more developmentally intricate.

Le game design est le processus de création et de mise au point des règles et autres éléments constitutifs d'un jeu. L'expression, qui s'applique à tout type de jeu, dont les jeux de société et les jeux de cartes, a connu un regain d'intérêt à la suite de l'apparition et de la popularisation des jeux vidéo. Les jeux ont été étudiés tout d'abord aux plans historique ou anthropologique, notamment par des personnalités comme Johan Huizinga ou Roger Caillois.

Un niveau (en anglais level ou stage) ou carte (en anglais map) est une étape dans un jeu vidéo. Généralement il correspond à une unité de lieu (et de temps) dans la progression. Les niveaux se distinguent par divers caractéristiques : environnement, topographie, ennemis, objectifs, difficulté Dans les jeux de plate-forme et les shoot them up, le niveau se parcourt généralement au rythme du scrolling (défilement du décor) et se termine souvent par la confrontation avec un boss.
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to video games: Video game – an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device. The word video in video game traditionally referred to a raster display device, but following popularization of the term "video game", it now implies any type of display device. Video game genres (list) – categories of video games based on their gameplay interaction and set of gameplay challenges, rather than visual or narrative differences.
