    Road to massive positive impact

    EXECUTION 
    Update 15 - End of this Thread A lot has changed since I started this thread. I remember when I wrote the first post, I had a severe lack of meaning in life. I really wanted to be "great". Everything I hoped and planned to do were to counter the hole that feeling created. While I still want to...

    Build a flash games website and run ads? Need your advice

    IDEA 
    Unreal Engine Game developer here. The market for flash games is long gone, it currently only serves kids from third world countries with really cheap PCs. Speaking from experience, I used to play them too when my computer did not have a Graphics Card back in ~2012. Actual alternatives could be...

    What is the best thing you got from the forum?

    PEOPLE 
    The best thing about this forum, is the feeling of "I am not alone in this type of endeavor". The pressure and friction of executing on an idea would have probably been too much If I didn't see other people in this forum doing the same.

    EXECUTION 
    Update 13 Its been a solid month of development. I have managed to garner a small community of about 72 people in my discord, some of whom are actively following the development progress I post there and react to it.

    Update 12 There is another..... So till now, my game was only competing with a 20-year-old dying game franchise.

    EXECUTION 
    Update 11 Devblog 2 is released, it currently has 319 views on YouTube, 2.5k views on reddit. Although its a failure compared to my previous devblog which has 3.8k views in YouTube, a YouTuber who makes videos on my game's genre of games has commented on my latest devblog. This means I am...

    Is Success down to hard work or luck?

    MINDSET 
    Contrarian View I believe luck does not exist. Look at it from a scientific point of view and it will expose luck - you cannot quantify it, its a term coined by people to pat themselves on the back after failing. A simple one-stop solution to all problems and failures, a simple concept that...

    Road to massive positive impact

    EXECUTION 
    Update 11 I have been looking around and found another problem game that I can solve. That game has a way better time cost/profit ratio but would require around $200k - $300k to build. So now I only require 400k from my first game, that would give me enough resources to start the second game...

    2nd Update on "I'm 17 Years Old, And (It Feels Like) I've Already Wasted My Entire Life"

    MINDSET 
    I am making a game for the PC market so it takes way longer to ship a game so Idk how much you would relate to my advice. Mobile gamedev is like a short sprint while PC gamedev is more like a marathon. But a universal piece of advice of mine for all game devs is to treat their games as a...

    Going on a Gap Year before Joining College

    I am in my second gap year lol. I think a gap year is really helpful in getting a person out of the "Slowlane Matrix" and you can learn and do a lot with the free time but I warn you it will start to get lonely at some point as it did for me. In my second gap year, I'm building a Video Game...

    QUESTION INTRO 
    Finding "the one" is vastly different than chasing women.... the latter is a huge waste of time and the former is what almost everyone will try to do when the age comes. You are telling a 15-year-old that chasing women is good?
