I'm feeling stuck right now in college and I need to find a way to make some money from game-dev(that's the best thing I know how to do). I live in a poor country soo even 100$ a month would be enough.
Depends on your skills, I usually do for extra income:
- art packs on itch.io for sale
- marketing/PR services
Other passive-income can be generated from:
- monetize your Youtube channel
- make a Patreon
- offer your programming skills in exchange for money (check topic for hire on game dev Discords- Unity forums- UE4 forums and Tigsource forums)
- sell source code from past games you made
- make a Kickstarter
- video chat (lol)
- make some small games that can be sold fast(note that good games can generate income for a long time)
- create online lectures
Hope this helps
