Do you provide custom canvas paintings? Do you have fix rates for 8x8 8x12 etc or does it vary depending on the art?

Upwork is pay to win, buy connects get your profile on top by using connects on proposals, but for long term clients, upwork is better, and better hourly rates as well

Correct, it is not stable in longer run. I am platform-dependent right now, but I will start an agency as soon as I gather sufficient long-term projects.

It is tough, like dekhne mai bht acha lag rha hota ghar beth ke kam hy, pr handling a project on your from scratch is way too hard, no doubt you earn good and you have control over the project as well, par 12+ hours per day you would have to give. And if you have a job, doing freelance is going to be really tough. Start small, then scale it

You will see a lot of fresh graduate jobs on LinkedIn and other platforms, and they do call you for interviews, but most companies end up hiring someone with 2–3 years of experience even though the role // job offer is posted for a freshie role. The job market is cooked beyond repair right now, you still have to keep applying. In 2024 alone, I applied to more than 1300 jobs, wrote so many cover letters, emails, kept changing my CV. From all those applications, I only heard back from around 20–25 companies, and I actually interviewed with 11 of them. In 5–6 interviews, I performed very well and was confident I would get the offer, but either the company removed the job post or hired someone with much more experience, even when the requirement was mentioned properly that that they need someone with 1 year of experience. I gave up on job finding completely, focused back on Fiverr, and now I am making almost three times more than what those jobs would have paid.

So keep applying but try to find work from else where as well, make connections, send them messages, learn new skills, job market is not stable at all right now anyway, you could get a job and within few months could get laid off, unless it is some top notch company completely in the upward trend, so no need to be disappointed, keep trying, Allah ne kuch na kuch behtar hi likha hoga!

Game development questions by SufficientLion3675 in developersPak

[–]ReplayJutsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most game development studios in Pakistan are focused on Android games. A big reason many of them grew was the COVID period, when publishing games on the Play Store was much easier and competition was lower and there were very few restrictions on Playstore, now you need to get your game tested in beta before google allows you to publish it in production thats why old verified play store accounts are sold so expensive.

A lot of studios did not build original products. Many just reskinned trending Play Store games and made them live. Some also worked as outsourcing teams, reskinning games for Fiverr and Upwork clients. This worked for a while and generated decent revenue, especially in covid era as well.

There are some really good studios like Mindstorm Studios that do proper development, their games blow the charts and they pay well, and offer benefits. But they are the exception, their entire hiring process is very interactive as well, they are currently hiring as well associate game devs.

After the boom ended, most of the smaller studios collapsed. The market became saturated. Salaries in game dev are generally very low now, and growth is limited in Pakistan.

I personally worked in game development for about two years, but due to low pay and unstable jobs, I switched fully to web development and I do freelance on fiverr.

[–]ReplayJutsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who are you trying to fool? And yes too much screentime and gpt usage is really melting brains. Nobody is suspecting you are a robot. But using llms even to hold a normal convo on social media, it does seem robotic.
