Any recommendations for getting into gaming?

Career Development Information Technology New Practitioners

I primarily have experience working in healthcare, but I've recently graduated with my MBA & I'd like to transition into tech (specifically gaming). I took a PMP course during my MBA program and subsequently passed my PMP exam in an effort to facilitate my career switch, but I never get contacted after submitting applications. Does anyone have recommendations for a career switcher?

https://yukaichou.com/gamification-example...tion-framework/ gives you access to a lot of tools to influence people, in particular gamers to become addicted.

Also have a look at this book, https://www.amazon.de/dp/0735222843?psc=1&...roduct_details, explaining how we get addicted, for example:

Did you know that the average wait time to open a business email is .... 6 seconds.
We are addicted to the goal of zero inbox. This addiction only exists since 20 years or so.

There is no doubt in my mind that gaming / developing games is unethical.

Using games for teaching could be a good objective.
