Android

Question

Is android app development and android game development the same thing or does android game development require some extra knowledge?

Answer 1

Every game is an app while every app isn't a game. I hope you understand what I mean to say.

Answer 2

An app could be a game. It basically is the same, for game development you would need to know how to use 3d/2d libraries etc. and make a GUI just like in a normal app.
