Additionally, how to earn substantial money online so that you can afford to start an indie video game development studio is explicated in this essay. While earning money as an independent video game developer may seem to be an arduous, daunting undertaking, it is more viable than ever before in the digital era. This is because, in the digital era, global digital distribution has become ubiquitous and these platforms are always rendered accessible due to the prevalence of smart phones and the internet. Independent video game developer can distribute their video games to multiple global digital distribution platforms and leverage enticing pay-per-click marketing campaigns to draw forth video game sales in which they will receive payments from royalties or a revenue split on video game sales.
In order to further boost video games sales, independent video game developer can procure product placements from renowned influencers on social media platform that their target market follows. Platforms that video game developers can connect with influencers on to buy product placements from encompass Instagram, Famebit, and Grapevine. Additionally, independent video game developers with infinitesimal marketing budgets can even giveaway review copies of their games for the prospect of having illustrious influencers and popular content creators review their games for free in order to help their games organically build traction. While earning royalties as an independent video game developer from video game sales may seem to require a marketing budget, it does not have to if your video game has merit and is able to organically build significant traction on social media platforms due to being highly addictive and recommend worthy. The overarching goal of the independent video game developers should not only entail creating a compelling game, but should also involve them doing everything in their purview to organically cultivate massive followings on social media platforms and encourage others to share their promotional video content so that they can more efficaciously stimulate video sales without inordinately exhausting their marketing budget. Independent video game developers can utilize program languages, such as JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, C++, or SQL, in order to produce video games. Once the independent video game developer has created a video game either for PC or mobile devices, he can subsequently find global digital distribution platforms of his choice to publish his video games onto.
The video games created by the independent video game developer should be compelling, addictive, share worthy, easily playable, and novel in order to stand out from the over one million other existing video games. The captivating gameplay experience should be indelible and the video game can even have an in-game store in order to allow the Independent video game developer to draw forth additional sales revenue from selling virtual in-game products, such as cosmetic items and unlockable items. As an Independent video game developer eager to earn money, there are a myriad of global digital distribution platforms to choose from to publish your video games onto. For instance, independent video game developers have the option to enroll in the Steamworks Distribution program.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Years ago, after suffering a humiliatingly large dumb tax, it dawned on me that I have a seemingly unlimited ability to hit unforced errors and sabotage my business and financial success. I suspect you do, too. It turns out that the key to getting rich (and staying that way) is to avoid doing stupid things. I don't need to do more smart things. I just need to make fewer dumb mistakes. The vast majority of our dumb tax is a direct result of emotional, overly optimistic, and poorly thought out decisions.
