Solo Dev is tough; hello, Head of Everything.

What’s the supreme boss level in game dev?

A question comes up a lot from my students
↳ especially those aspiring to be solo devs.

Solo dev is tough; prepare to be:

• Developer
• Level Designer
• Content Writer
• Game Designer
• UX / UI Designer
• Release Engineer
• Audio Engineer
• 2D/3D Artist
• Tech Artist
• Animator
• Tester

And the list goes on and on and on…

I’m not here to crush any dreams, but…
solo ambitions may not always be realistic.

Sure, there are exceptions. 🍀

In truth, creating complex games solo
requires exceptional talent and ample time.

So, what’s the “boss level” for aspiring devs?

As simple and as challenging as it sounds.
