As I said in the blog, I doubt I'll ever give up game development completely - but it could be a long time before I'm able to make Fancy Fish Game my full time job (if ever). But, as long as it's my dream, I'll keep on trying even if I limited free time - who knows what will happen?Legend of Gamedevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278402110409103690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285736713606919795.post-38394555562248398862014-05-11T04:59:24.165-07:002014-05-11T04:59:24.165-07:00You can do it!

I've been an artist for years... making music that will probably never fund me enough to live (that's why I even started doing soundtrack work). But when you persevere, things happen. Even if you have to take other jobs to get you through the week / month.<br /><br />Many of my artist friends are in the same boat... doing their thing for 20 years now (they're in their early 30's). But now some of them are actually succeeding. Making enough to live. It just takes a while.<br /><br />You'll find your own balance and work it out. You'll need to take gigs you don't exactly want or jobs that dangerously cut into your own creative time, but you'll see that and readjust the balance. You will do it and succeed. Just keep at it. It's a VERY long game, making money on your passion. You can do it!<br /><br />~Deancher n obylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16086574069851992931noreply@blogger.com
