Game design, graphic design, UX design, audio, game programming, etc.... You could easily learn Unity/C# and use that on mobile. It's a very well developed engine and will assist you with tackling most everything easily. It's cross-platform so you can have it on mobile and easily port to any other platform if needed. www.Unity3D.com/learn https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CSharp/

for game development Android studio is not a good choice. Look for a game engine. as been suggested above unity with c# is a good one. specially since you can get a lot of the work done without coding . I'm personally interested in "unreal " both because it's more powerful then "unity" (there is an argument around it, still....). and secondly because it uses c++ for coding (alongside with it's special "unreal script " language). and c++. doesn't need introduction (it's syntax is almost identical to Java , so you have the advantage of been able to work with Android studio. too) sorry for making it long...... :)

@Farshaad Both engines are amazing, so I don't usually go with that debate. I've used both of them extensively, and they're both very capable engines that were able to accomplish everything I set out to do. I haven't messed with Unreal in regard to mobile though, so I can't attest to if it's up to par with how Unity handles it or not. C# and Java are more similar than Java and C++, but if you know any of them, learning the others is easy as pie. I believe beginners would have an easier time with Unity, and also have better overall support from the community, but again, you can't go wrong with either of them. Personally, I'd take the time to learn both if you're going into the gaming industry.

I recently created a guide for those looking into video game creation and if you want to see it either scroll down a ways on trending or I can post a comment and you can find it in my posts.
