In this video we answer the age old question: WHY IS GAME DEV SO HARD??!

We discuss the emotional toll making a game can take on you, the endless information you need to learn, feeling like you're not enough or like you're doing something wrong, the struggles of being a self taught developer, the huge scope of making a game, and subconscious battles you may face.

All with a lot of humbleness, authenticity, vulnerability, and a TON of compassion for our fellow devs. You are all capable of making a game, don't doubt yourself. Just get started!

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.
