Q:

Game development and e-reputation

I am currently working as IT architect / tech expert.
In my free time, I have developed a few apps and made them available on stores. Some of these are utility apps, some of these are games. I've added links to those apps on my personal website. 
I wonder if having games published under my name may hurt my e-reputation, as game development might not be considered a professional or mature hobby? I'm working in Europe where people might have a different view on this topic than in the U.S.
Maybe I should publish/reference these games anonymously, on another website?

A:

Games are serious stuff.  Unless they've been badly received, then it makes sense to highlight these in your resume.
Be prepared, however, to discuss any coding techniques, frameworks, integrations and issues you overcame in designing and building these apps.
Don't shove these to the back of your resume and attempt to play them down, there's valuable code in them there games!

A:

Be sure to keep your CV updated properly, with the relevant work. Employers usually care about the profit you can make for them.
I think it will not hurt to put this effort of yours into the CV. I would add it at the "Hobbies" section. Making "small" games can be considered a hobby.
If somebody looks intrigued by this "hobby", explain them how it keep your mind / brain focused and trained, while expanding the ways of thinking.
You are afraid that your games can be seen as a "damage". You should present them from the start as they are: a tool to train yourself, an additional technical skill.
Heck, if you are "brave" enough, you can even put it in the "Experience" section in your CV. Especially if you even make some money (amount may be irrelevant for the discussion, unless it helps you get rich).
