I have been tracking time carefully on the project. I always wondered “Exactly how much time do indie devs spend on stuff like marketing, legal, etc.?” So, here’s a breakdown on how I have been spending my time on the project in this first month. For anyone who is wondering “Where’s programming?” on here, I am doing this all via Blueprint in Unreal, so my “programming” has sort of been a mix of design/Blueprint creation. The short version is, most my time has been spent on art and design and while there are a lot of hats to wear, currently it’s not taking up a huge chunk of my time to do all those other things. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6085bbf6253d34001403f6eb/1630345214092-L5UBWLYJFLNGIG80W767/Press_Montage.png July 2021 Update - First Month of Production Complete - Just Purkey Games in the Press!
