I'm the solopreneur and solo developer behind Hacker Experience 2 (https://hackerexperience.com https://hackerexperience.com), an open-source MMORTS hacking simulation game with the main goals of
1) fostering interest on Computer Science among young adults and curious people, especially those on third-world countries that have no chance of going to college
2) bringing people to the FOSS world by having a low-barrier to entry project where they can contribute directly (not necessarily with code). That kind of experience - seeing their contribution being rolled out worldwide to a game they love - must be life changer.
3) raising privacy awareness and let people know about encryption and VPNs
4) and why not, create a fun, interactive and highly strategic game :)
After 4 years of development, I'm still nowhere close to reaching any of them (not yet released). But if my game can motivate and change the life of a single kid, all that trouble will be well worth it.
Here's to another 4 years! For people out there in similar situation, the urge to quit may be high, but try not to give up. E-mail is on profile in case anyone wants to talk.
