    It is very, very helpful to have a computer science degree when it comes to getting a job. But, a sufficiently strong portfolio may let you land a role, more likely at an indie shop than a AAA shop. Successfully launching some commercial quality games is the greatest asset you can have in your portfolio. You will likely have to do some coding interviews if applying as a programmer, I would recommend explicitly prepping for those types of questions by practicing somewhere like leetcode.com , or going through the best book on the topic: https://www.amazon.com/Cracking-Coding-Interview-Programming-Questions/dp/0984782850/ (not an affiliate link, I have no ties to the author or publisher).
