Creativity undertaken takes courage! You’re putting a piece of yourself out to a world waiting. That’s why celebrating small wins matters. Momentum is built one victory at a time. Don’t let false humility steal that from you as every step forward counts toward that finish!

Indie devs, you don’t have to go it alone. Collaboration isn’t just helpful, it’s a freak’n game changer! Surround yourself w/ those who inspire, challenge & push you! Share ideas, give feedback & grow together. A great collab can elevate you in ways you never imagined.✨🧠✨.

Execution is the key to making progress & getting wins! High time to stop overthinking and start door kicking! Too often, we get stuck in freak’n analysis paralysis & second guessing every damn decision. However, real growth and success come from pulling triggers & making moves‼️

Focus is the most powerful tool for an indie developer, but it’s constantly under assault by distractions i.e. social media pings, email notifications, and human interruptions. If you don’t protect your focus time, no one else will‼️

Focus on the importance of simplifying your creative efforts. Consider narrowing your scope & focusing on doing one or two things exceptionally well! This will help you avoid feature creep, maintain your motivation & reach your finish polished and potentially profitable!

Experimentation is where innovation happens in games. Pushing boundaries w/ bold mechanics, crazy art styles & designs that break convention. But it’s all about balance. Experiment w/ measured risk, stay disciplined, but most importantly, ya gotta finish!! You got this!! 👊🏼

Game dev is tough but rewarding. "Embrace the suck!”Setbacks aren’t barriers, they’re chances to grow. From art to code to marketing, success means embracing complexity, leveling up, & staying committed! Challenges forge stronger creators if you don’t quit!! You’ve got this! 💪🎮

Creating is rewarding & scary. You’re building something from nothing, risking rejection or acceptance. Creating w/o knowing your identity & purpose, can be paralyzing @ times. But a solid foundation can very freeing! ⛓️💥.

Encouragement through a timely word or simple act of someone pausing just to understand what you're going through has always felt like a nice hand on the shoulder or soft punch in the arm to help shake off complacency or over thinking. Hope that these videos do the same for you!
