Trying to build an indie game while working a full-time job can feel exhausting and often isolating.

In this video, I talk about balancing a demanding day job with indie game development, why the real constraint usually isn’t time but energy, and how redefining progress can make long-term projects sustainable instead of overwhelming.

This isn’t about hustle culture or productivity hacks. It’s about building something creative around a real life, not instead of one.

Topics covered:
• Why “perfect balance” is a myth
• Energy vs time in creative work
• Redefining what progress looks like
• Making peace with slower, sustainable pace
• Why not quitting sometimes is the win

These are the same trade-offs I’m navigating while building an indie game alongside full-time work, and I’ll continue sharing what that process actually looks like the progress, the pauses, and everything in between.

If you’re working on a creative project while juggling other responsibilities, you’re not behind. You’re just doing something difficult.
