Matt has been in and out of the game development and software industries. At a point in his life where everything lined up, he was able to devote a solid few months full-time to complete his game Streets of Rogue.

After presenting his game at GDC, he picked up a publisher who helped promote it to the success it is today.

Matt's journey is truly inspiring and unconventional. I feel a lot of people will be in this situation now, and maybe it's the best time for you to build your game.

Its raw and fresh, check out the unedited version of our interview with Tim.

Tim has been building games since he was a child, with a focus on strategy games. As Tim grew older he went to university as he was told to "get a real job". He left uni before finishing his degree and went into marketing, later starting his own company, sold it and now returns to his passion for making games full time.

Learn how Tim deep dives into what makes a game enjoyable, as he goes on a discovery mission to find out the point between enjoyable strategy and complexity.

Listen to how he manages to fund his current game development and learn about what makes a game sticky or enjoyable.
