What “gamedev” means

Wikipedia

Video game development is the process of creating a video game. It is a multidisciplinary practice, involving programming (coding), design, art, audio, user interface, and writing. Each of those may be made up of more specialized skills; art includes 3D modeling of objects, character modeling, animation, visual effects, and so on. Development is supported by project management, production, and quality assurance. Teams can be many hundreds of people, a small group, or even a single person.
