As many of you know, over two years ago, I quit my job and sold my house to start this Indie dev studio with my wife. Like many of you, our dream was to make games fulltime.

But the reality is, our journey has been a mixture of joys and challenges. We're not where we want to be just yet—we're still working on our first game and juggling a lot of tasks to pay the bills.

Starting a game studio is tough but also rewarding. It sometimes means facing business aspects you might not enjoy, like budgeting and finding funding. For us, it’s been about managing time between making our game, Samurado, and generating income through other means like our YouTube channel while still being available for our kids.

Despite the struggles, I love what I do and believe in the longterm growth of our studio. It's not just about coding your dream game all day—there's a lot of work that goes into running a profitable business. But for me, it's been worth it despite what often feels like slow progress as it's a dream I've had for over 20 years.

Indie game dev is notoriously known as a difficult industry to get started in, but with a lot of creativity, and a bit of willingness to dip into an entrepreneurial mindset, there are many ways to support yourself as an indie developer.

If you're new to our channel, we're Brandon & Nikki from Sasquatch B Studios. We sold our house to start our game studio, and work full time on building our business and making our game Samurado.
