Best Answer

Despite the crap you hear all around a Game Designer at entry level makes around 35k a year. Based on experience a basic game designer can make up to 75k a year. Lead game designers and Game Directors make a significant amount more being in the 100k-125k a year zone. Overall, anyone who thinks they are going to have fun being a game designer is sorely mistaken, the pay is moderate and imagine trying to play Video Games after being a game designer, you will only notice flaws.

It's totally variable, based on things like the contract, or the scale in which the game was made (is it a small addition to a website, in which case there could be no money paid, or is it a small downloadable game, is it a new game for a big company, etc.)

Also, not all money made from designing (or any creative job) is just for designing it. Let's say you made the game Blood&Guts. If you were working for a company, you'd get paid some money for designing it (depends on the size of the company), and every time somebody bought Blood&Guts, you'd get a small percentage of the price (this is called a royalty, and most companies have to pay these to at least one person, and they are generally loath to pay it and want to pay as small as possible royalties- or even not include them in the contract)
