Designing Games
Hello,
You can try Lynda website which is now taken over by LinkedIn. They do have some awesome tutorials that you can go through to hone your skills.
And while i was searching for it, came across an article published in forbes. Please go through:

Want To Be A Game Designer? Learn To Code.
Thousands of designers have convened this week in San Francisco to discuss the present and future of the video game industry. If you’re hoping to someday join them, you better start learning the nuts and bolts of how games work –now.
In a conference session called “Game Educators Rant!,” game designer Brenda Brathwaite took the podium to warn the faculty of collegiate game design programs that they may be crippling their students’ chances of success. Her message should also ring true for any student hoping for a dream job designing video games for a living.
“If you are offering game design that is not built on a foundation of code, that is tantamount to fraud,” she said. “Those students want into the video game industry, and they need to be proficient coders.”
“I’m hiring an intern,” she told the crowd. ”If you look at my laptop, you’ll see two folders of resumes –one is people who can code and one is the trash.”
Brathwaite admitted that there are jobs in the industry that don’t require programming skills, and that she herself has built a successful career and is only now learning how to code. But as academic game design programs swell with students competition for jobs is becoming increasingly fierce –and in years to come, she says, students who can’t code won’t have a chance.
“If you look at a solid designer versus a solid designer who is also a coder, that coder is always going to win,” she said.

All the best.

Here are 4 Free Websites Where You Can Learn The Basics Of Game Development
Lazy Foo’s Tutorials
Lazy Foo has been around for many years, and it was one of the main resources I used when I first delved into game programming. He’s written plenty of tutorials on both SDL and OpenGL, two graphics libraries that are cross-platform and can handle 2D and 3D graphics, respectively. His tutorials are well-written, straightforward, and will get you acquainted with both libraries using the C++ language as the coding medium.
Aaron Cox’s Tutorials
The tutorials on Aaron Cox’s site were another core resource that I used when learning how to program video games. His tutorials focus on 2D game programming using the SDL graphics library, so you can use these tutorials in conjunction with Lazy Foo’s above. Aaron provides his own SDL overview, and they provide a great foundation, but they’re nowhere as in-depth as Lazy Foo’s.
Game Development @ Tuts+
Tuts+ is just a great resource in general when it comes to learning new computer skills, and game development is one of the things they teach. The game development section of Tuts+ has a great “Start Here” article that introduces you to the site, the kinds of articles you’ll find there, and a roundup of great links for you to check out as you learn more about game development. When you’re ready, you should also check out their roundup of fantastic game development tutorials from around the web.
GameDev.Net
Lastly, we come to GameDev, an online community of game developers from around the world. It would be a grave sin to talk about game development websites without mentioning GameDev, which has been a formative and central website for many novice and advanced game programmers alike. It’s been around for almost 15 years, and there’s no sign that the site will die anytime soon.
