Indie Dev Asks Whether $100,000 Is Enough To Make A Game

Well, FTL was made on ten thousand. So, yeah.

FTL was almost done before it went up on kickstarter. That $10,000 was to finish the game and add more content, not to build it from scratch.

For an indie game the foruma is fine. not so for a big one. the big ones need to add expenses for graphic engines, outsourcing, rights to use brands ect. nto to mention bureaucracy, red tape, marketing costs that are not attributed directly to the game, but still are there.
