# Developer workflow The game app developer workflow has the same tasks as the core app workflow plus additional tasks specific to gaming apps. 1. Same setup as described in the core app workflow . Page-1 Communities Communities Communities Communities 2. Game developers can [choose a game engine](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/choose-engine.html#choose-engine) to simplify and optimize video game development. The choice of game engine also determines the language (for example, C++, C#, GDScript) used for development. 3. Game developers can port existing x86 apps and build native Arm64 binaries as described for core apps. 4. Game developers will benefit from using the guides, components, and tutorials in the [Snapdragon Game Toolkit](https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/snapdragon-game-toolkit) to optimize the gaming experience on Snapdragon platforms. 5. For AI games, [SDKs](https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/snapdragon-game-toolkit/software) and [plugins](https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/snapdragon-game-toolkit/integrations) are available to help developers deploy AI models fast while optimizing device power and performance. 6. Optimize apps as described for core apps. Lastly, several communities are available for game developers to connect with fellow developers, post questions, and share information to support their game development. The following sections provide more information on the tasks involved in the game app development workflow. See [Core App Developer Workflow](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/core-app-dev-workflow.html#core-app-dev-workflow) for more information about the setup, port, build, and optimize tasks. - [Choose Engine](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/choose-engine.html) - [AI in Game Development](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/gaming-apps-ai.html) - [Snapdragon game communities](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/gaming-support.html) - [Discord discussions](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/gaming-support.html#discord-discussions) - [GitHub community](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/gaming-support.html#github-community) - [YouTube channel](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/gaming-support.html#youtube-channel) - [Forums](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-62010-1/topic/gaming-support.html#forums) Last Published: Jun 16, 2026 [Previous Topic Overview](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/80-62010-1/topics/game-dev-overview.md) [Next Topic Choose Engine](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/80-62010-1/topics/choose-engine.md)
