Hi Arman, nice journey. I was following your games but I have noticed its been a while you haven't posted any updates about your new game on this channel. If I remember correctly last time I read somewhere that you were making a horror game or something. Also I am wondering if you are still working as gamedev or did you switch career ? :)

Dude, thank you!!! I've always wanted to develop games, but I had the opposite problem you had. I had a career I truly loved as an independent contractor and an Adobe certified instructor. But I had to let it all go when my son was diagnosed with autism. He was so messed up! He didn't speak until he was 10. I couldn't put in the hours and do all the traveling I needed to do and help him too. He needed a full-time caregiver, so I became an at-home mom. You'd think I'd have all the time time in the world to learn game development being at home. But he needed doctors visits, therapies and constant care, all day, every day. He's now off to college majoring in engineering so it was well worth the sacrifice, but it cost me literally everything. I committed career suicide. I lost my marriage and had to leave the excitement of Chicago to move back home with my mom. So I'm living in a small town I truly hate, and now I'm older and stuck in a market that doesn't value me. I'm teaching Blender and Photoshop to kids at a local computer camp. But the games I've always wanted to develop are still stuck in my soul, waiting to be born. I didn't know about the Unity plugin you mentioned. I'm not a programmer, but I dream of developing games for VR and AR. Congratulations on your success, and thank you for lighting a fire in me to take a leap of faith. I've got nothing to lose. I've already lost everything. Maybe my dead end is a blessing in disguise!

Wow, that's quite a story, and I'm sorry to hear about your struggles - but it is truly incredible what you did and achieved for your son. I hope you're finally able to get back on track with your own dreams and do something cool for yourself now that you have the chance. Cliched, but we only have one life! Go for it - the indie community is a really fun and supportive scene to be a part of. For more inspiration, I'd suggest watching some game development documentaries - the ones by Double Fine (called "Double Fine Adventure" and the newly released "Double Fine PsychOdyssey" are great for getting an inside look at the game dev life. GVMERS is also a good KZbin channel for docs. There's so much more to get inspired by. But for sure, go ahead and give it a shot! :) It'll be totally worth it.

Your unique illustrative style is what really sells it, in my humble opinion. It really draws you into the story. I'd love to see you do a video series as to how you moved from prototyping and development to getting your game sold. That had to be quite a journey. Did you just go the Kickstarter and Patreon route, or was there an easier way to get your company noticed? What did it take to fund your project? You should blog your marketing journey.

A big help in getting noticed was launching a demo on itch.io and gamejolt, and a lot of people wishlisted the game because of the success of that demo. A lot of press attention came from that, which was amplified by the indiegogo campaign. To be honest, it's not a flawless method as I tried to do the same for my next 2 games, but it wasn't as successful. So of course, a lot depends on the game itself!

Sadly for me it failed (probably because I'm a programmer so my weakness is art/music/story) and had to go back to a "real" job. I'm still learning though and hope to attempt full time indie again in the near future with everything I've learned since then.
