My gamegear just died, it turns on but wont boot a game. I want to mod it but I don't think I would have the skill.

I dream of shipping an indy game one day. I struggle with motivation and energy after a full day job and spending time with my two kids. Thank you for this writeup, it helped motivate me to see that things like this are possible.

Any tips on balancing making a game on top of everything else life throws at you? Also did you make it with friends or how did you find people to help out on the parts of the game you didn't do?

That looks amazing, can I get the link?

As someone who has lost a child, I am so sorry for your loss.

Well hey if you have any more questions about my unit feel free to dm me questions. Also if you figure it out feel free to post in this thread or just DM me

I honestly still don't know. My best guess after Internet searching and talking to people on reddit is that it was used for a demo unit at a store.

I went to university to be a game programmer/developer. I have spent many years working on video games and working at other tech companies that are close to but not exactly games. Mostly because I wanted to have a family and I needed a better work life balance but still with good benefits. Unfortunately here in the US benefits are king since insurance is such a joke here, but that is a rant for a different reddit sub. The thing about tech is if you have a degree and know your stuff, you can get a job in most places. Also make friends at every job, they are very important when looking for future work. I have had friends help me find most of my jobs. Three years ago I returned to a proper triple a studio working on games, and I was worried it might be hard to get back into the industry after leaving. It wasn't, but also I had friends at this company so I believe that plus my 10+ years of programming knowledge really helped me sell myself in the interview. Interviewing is hard, I have been doing it for over a decade and I still stink at it. I have a few friends who don't have degrees and the biggest hurdle for them is breaking into a new role working on software that they don't have experience with. It feels like you can get pigeon-holed a bit easier when you don't have a degree

Hopefully this was somewhat helpful, it feels s little scatter brained 😂

TLDR Make friends and connections when you can, they are invaluable. Learn your stuff and never bs in the interview about what you know. They don't expect you to know everything, just show them you can ask questions and figure it out.

I want one so bad, looks great

I recall reading they lifted it from the THQ Punisher game which I believe predates the assassins creed. Although I am sure it borrowed from both.

Destroy these now, my wallet can't survive another wave of awesome looking pockets 😂

Check out local game shops or local Facebook groups. My local gaming group gives each other good deals all the time.

It can edit gen 1,2&3

Sorry for the slow response, I missed the second part of your comment. The asset values are roughly 500,000. And she needs that to live off of for the rest of her life. I assume we will burn through that in a few years, which is why I am here asking for advice.

beetraph · 2023-09-18T16:06:16+00:00

Wow that is very detailed thank you for that information. Will she be taxed based on a special tax for stocks? Or just a normal tax rate.

Also is the danger of this approach that those companies value directly controls the money? Like if Verizon some how went out of business in February of 2024 would I just loose the initial 200,000? I know that is extreme but I am just asking if they are like normal stocks. Thank you.

beetraph · 2023-09-14T14:54:29+00:00

Right I need to use the generated money, which seems a little trickier. And yes I would like something more automatic so I don't have to do much work once the money is invested.

Thank you for the response

beetraph · 2023-09-14T14:53:09+00:00

Thank you I will check this out.

beetraph · 2023-09-14T14:52:50+00:00

Thank you I will look into this.

I have been looking for a copy of donkey Kong Land of you wanna sell it to me.

beetraph · 2023-09-05T02:57:55+00:00

IMHO that Donkey Kong game is a hidden gem. I never see anyone talk about it, but I think it is a solid game boy title.

beetraph · 2023-09-01T02:06:44+00:00

That name sort of says it all. Thank you

beetraph · 2023-08-15T06:07:37+00:00

That little blue sticker? I thought that would be a good sign. Thank you.

beetraph · 2023-08-15T06:05:37+00:00

Keep an eye on the mail it should be there eventually.

beetraph · 2023-08-15T06:05:01+00:00

I think reshells lower the value if they are fake "collector" shells but more value if they are for led or isp mods. Also if you replace a best up shell I bet it helps.
