Show Notes

In this honest and raw episode of The Indie Game Dev Podcast, we take a step back in time and dive into the harsh truths and realities of running an indie game development studio.

Join us as we explore the challenges, fears, and discouragement we have faced since quitting a stable finance career and selling our family home to pursue our dream of becoming indie game developers.

From feelings of frustration and bitterness to the weight of financial pressure and the fear of failure, we open up about the emotional rollercoaster of pursuing our passion, and the important role perseverance plays in successfully achieving your goals.

This episode aims to provide an honest and unfiltered perspective on the game development experience. It challenges the portrayal often seen on platforms like YouTube, where technicalities, entertainment, and progress overshadow the challenges faced by indie game developers.

Let's embrace the honest truth and find inspiration in the pursuit of our dreams.
