they totally hand roll poo poo that anybody doing line of business would've cracked open a can of whoopass in 1999 and they therefore get some 1999 software dev results out of it there are AAA games out there with less-than-single-digit test code coverage on nonengine code

punk rebel ecks posted:The constant moving around really puts me off. bls for "software developer" says 22% growth outlook, which seems about right what is the difference? title of "developer" usually gets paid like 60k more in normal industry land, 20k in bideo james lol

supergiant is also in the sfba, so the cost of living wasnt an issue for them (it prolly was, but outweighed by other stuff)

your average movie will do that half marketing half making the movie ratio, and thats just because movies are a mature business sector. so are video games nowadays if you want to be in a sector where its all tech risk all the time go do engineering research or something. if you do a thing where all the buyers are gonna be procurement departments with lots of peeps to look at your thingy and poke and prod it all you need to do for marketing is ads in the industry journal and showin up at conferences. consumer business can never be that way. gotta run the red queens race bob dobbs is dead fucked around with this message at 19:10 on Mar 3, 2021 |

indie games are like horror movies in this metaphor, spend 10 million on the movie and then the rest on marketing and distribution. higher profit ratios, brutal uncertainty
