​Lately, I've seen several game studios claiming the title of "India's first AAA game studio." This has me contemplating: what truly defines a studio as AAA? ​Is it determined solely by the final product, or is it a reflection of the entire ecosystem behind it? ​Does it simply boil down to the "AAA quality" of a single game? ​How much does the talent pool matter? Is it about building a diverse, multi-faceted, and multi-cultural team? ​Should an environment that fosters continuous growth and innovation be considered a key part of the definition? ​My take is that while creating a AAA game without mature processes is difficult but not impossible, a studio that aims for both a AAA product and a AAA work environment is planting a seed for the future. That is the foundation that will truly grow and, in time, bear fruit. ​Ultimately, is "AAA" a label for the game, or for the studio that creates it? ​Would love to hear your thoughts. ​#GameDev #IndianGaming #AAA #StudioCulture #GameDevelopment

Earning 2- 3 L/month as a freelance game developer in India is not difficult if you: 🌟 Can communicate well 🌟 Can write good code, fast 🌟 Can use AI to build custom tools 🌟 Understand quality and design 🌟 Understand how to make a game: design, development & distribution 🌟 Can do market research, and understand what works vs. what does not I won't say that making money from games has become easier with AI. As a game developer, you must understand deeply what makes a game good, engaging, and appealing. If you can build a good game and find the right places to distribute, you can earn a good living from doing this full-time, as a solo freelancer. Recently, a 17-year-old game-dev in my Discord made ~Rs. 85,000 (~$1,000) from a web-game he built and licensed to one of the platforms. Quite amazing for someone to make that money at that age! Just focus on making good games and putting it out there, your first few games might fail but as you improve eventually, you will see the results :) #videogames #gamedevelopment
