watching this video atm. finding out that scott cawthon worked at dollar general up until FNAF is insane. i work at dollar tree, currently building my game. not that it's going to be as big as FNAF, no way. but it's just interesting to see that similarity.

@beardalaxy I think the person who made Stardew Valley was working part-time at a movie theater, but he was also leeching off of his wife.

@xianc78 @beardalaxy
In his case it would turn out to be more his wife investing in his work and it paying off. "Leeching" is more applicable for the kind of indie dev that never actually finishes their shit.

@ArdainianRight @xianc78 yeah when i hear "leeching" i think of yanderedev lol

@beardalaxy @ArdainianRight Now that you put it that way, it applies more to someone like Chris Chan whose work will never be profitable.
