what is Indie Dev Story?

Quit your job to develop indie games while balancing health, social life, and finances.

Indie Dev Story is a single-player idle management game simulating the challenges of indie game development. Manage your time and resources to create games and pay your bills.

It sits in the Idle / Management corner of the genre. Like most idle games it runs on a simple loop — earn, reinvest, automate — but the depth is in how long that loop keeps unfolding. Expect to check in, make a few decisions, and watch the numbers climb whether you're at the keyboard or not.
