That looks surprisingly bad for a 2022 game. The characters are a matter of taste I guess, but rendering soldiers that are larger than buildings, poor perspectives etc. I love Dune but hope they put in a lot more work.

Well, in Denmark we have the equivalent of Basic income and I'd say we have a major problem with peoples willingness to work. Some families are on welfare for generations now.

Meta question: I really love this post/framework, but have no use for it right now, so I'm putting it in my bookmarks where my ability to pick it back up relies on my memory of this post. How do you guys manage your bookmarks?

Very glad to hear that I'm not alone in this line of thought. Keep us posted on your SKU success. I wont pretend to be a wizard in the area, learning as I go along so stories from other ventures are a big inspiration.

Thank you for sharing, I think those insights are correct. We have currently a few features where it's painfully obvious how to cheat the system to gain higher-tier functions. I wont change that, because if you're that strapped fo

The top tier reduction isn't very scientific. We had 99% of our paying customers on the middle-tier and we engaged a couple of them asking how we could improve the top tier to motivate them to try it out. All of them said that 60€&#x2F

Thank you! Externally I'd say the community on IndieHackers has been a big help. Second, but this came back to bite me, I asked many of my closest "colleagues" about their thoughts on pricing. All consultants within software

I recall doing the same some 15 years ago :) I'll add a setting for increments which can be an int or Random. It won't be viable everywhere, but some will hopefully find it useful.

Yes sir - So that if you've sent 5 invoices via another system, you can bump it and have it restart there. This is under your Profile, but you're the 2nd person to ask so I might move it into the Create Invoice Dialog. Thanks for

100% correct.

Thank you! We currently have 2 templates for invoices, but will add more in the future. Serial no's are consecutive and you can set when to start the series, so if you're at 888 now, just punch that in and we'll increment on

Sorry if this wasn't stated clear enough. The advice here is for freelancers, where you have no boss. If you are employed, then you need to get acceptance of possible outcomes from your management, before going into that talk.

Actually it will almost always make it worse for a couple of minutes, then everything cools down. In my experience at least.

It's just how he is a person. I learned it from observing him. Its not that difficult to copy if you can avoid taking part in the emotional stir.
