So you quit your job to work on this game full time and after 5 months, you're deciding to go back to work full time.
Did you quit your job with the hopes this game would sustain you? If so, did you do any market research to validate that hypothesis.
- bavila 5y agoI'm inclined to think this was a labor of love, not profit. There are people out there who quit their jobs to go backpacking on arduous trails for 5 months. It's long, hard work, but they do it for the other joys that come with the experience. And they do it all with the expectation of returning back to working life--not on cashing out. I don't see how what OP did is any different, other than it being a digital journey rather than a physical one. Congrats, OP.
- Vaskivo 5y agoIt's just like @bavila said. I took some time to fulfill one of my life goals. Some people quit their jobs and travel the world. I stayed home and made a game.
- halfmatthalfcat 5y agoCool, I just ask because I have similar aspirations and never was able to pull the trigger to quit out of fear of losing income/falling behind financially.
