Full Time Game Dev will take you from knowing nothing about game development to making money from your indie game on the Steam store. We’ll study branding, marketing, publishers, Kickstarter, C# coding, Unity development, PR, launching on Steam, and everything in between! After 10 years of making indie games (and also making a ton of mistakes), I’m thrilled to teach you what I’ve learned!

Learn everything you need to know about building a game from scratch, launching it on Steam, and securing enough revenue to become a full-time game dev!

The technical aspects of making games isn’t really the main struggle for indie game devs. Thousands of courses are available from teachers who have never made enough money from their games to pay the bills. The real challenge is taking a viable product and selling it to bring in a sustainable, six figure income. Not only will I teach you the technical skills to create a 2D game in Unity, I’m also going to teach you my proven method for building a brand, securing press coverage and YouTuber attention, and ultimately bringing in a sustainable income, or even 6 figures.
