Building an indie game is exciting, but staying motivated over months or years can be one of the hardest parts of the journey.

In this video, I talk about maintaining motivation while creating an indie game, especially during the quiet stretches where progress feels slow and feedback is limited. This isn’t a hype video or a productivity hack but rather it’s a real look at how to keep moving forward when motivation dips, validation is inconsistent, and the finish line feels far away.

Whether you’re a solo developer, part of a small indie team, or just starting your first game project, I hope this helps you feel a little less alone in the process.

Topics covered:
• Why motivation isn’t something you “have” or “lose”
• How to redefine progress to avoid burnout
• Separating creative identity from external validation
• Building in public without chasing applause
• Letting your “why” evolve over time

If you’re working on a game right now — keep going. You’re making more progress than you think.
