Indie Game Developers: Motivation is NOT What You Need!

So many people are looking for Motivation to work on their games. Motivation can be HARD to find sometimes as an indie game dev! Luckily for us, there's something MUCH more important than motivation that will keep you coming back to your game development project day in and day out. Do you have a goal of making your dream game? or quitting your job to become a game developer one day? or even just learning how to make your very first game? If you think that you lack the Motivation OR the Discipline to make our own indie game, I promise you there's another way to reach your goals that is MUCH easier. In this video, we share some tips we've learned from working daily on our 2d metroidvania Veil of Maia for many many months now. We don't claim to be experts, we're just two regular people that are learning and working away at our game one step at a time.
