Hi everyone,
i am trying to find out what problems game developers are facing today. This is why i am doing a survey to better understand what your pain points are.

So please check out this short survey.
http://goo.gl/forms/9jEKGFECht

If you are interested in the outcome and aggregated results, feel free to leave your email at the bottom of the survey.

Thanks for your help.

In 2005, there was no TIGForums, so we didn't check back here every 5 minutes for every 1 minute coding

But realistically if I didn't need to exercise and sleep I'd be notch by now.

Interesting discussion :-).
Thanks for all the great feedback so far.

Thx,

flooded markets, overwhelmingly apathetic audiences, insane production costs, depression, working poverty, obscurity , nihilism, emails from "app promotion agencies", spammy forum messages asking dev's to fill out surveys, reading forums, the internet, etc.

I only managed to sell 5 copies of my game the first day. The game had 5433 clicks, but only 5 people actually purchased it.

I released my game 20 days ago, seems would sold 10~30 units per month.
