I'm an experienced C++ developer - how can I enter the gaming industry?
<p>I've been working in C++ in embedded environments for a number of years, developing navigation applications.  There is a gaming company in my hometown that I like the look of, but I don't have game development experience.  You could consider a navigation app as a type of game, depending on who you are running from.</p>

<p>My question is, what steps should I take to enter the industry?  Is it a bad idea to enter the industry at this stage (I'm 30)?</p>
