This video is completely different from our regular content. I'm going to get really honest about the reality of life as a game dev. I'm going to give you an inside peek into our lives and be really transparent so that you can see what most devs don't show you.

Let's have a real conversation about what it takes to make it in game development. What struggles are happening behind the scenes? What's it like to be a developer? a youtuber?

From lack of motivation, dealing with criticism and sharing your creative works with the world, to living life on camera, slow progress and big fears, we're going to let you in on ALL OF IT!

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, Veil of Maia.
