Get enough personal funding for my parents to be taken care of.
Then build indie games for the rest of my life. Making single person RPGs. Where the stories can fill the void of my need to write novels. And the themes being a culmination of all the games I have played that had a role in guiding some sense of morality or drama. Such as the last mission on Halo Reach or the Mass Effect Trilogy, or Outer Wilds etc.
I’d want to compose, do the artwork, and the development for this, an all-out love letter to this form of storytelling. Spending years fine tuning every single detail as if it’s an elaborate sculpture. Details so small the crescendos of the OST, exactly match animations and playable cutscenes. All until, I feel I have reached a personal magnum opus, of the games released thus far.
And then say good bye. Moving on and living a simple life.
That's really cool. You sound like one of my old roommates - he wanted to do the same type of games and do every part of making them.
Hope to run into some of them, some day. Has he gotten around to it yet?
I'm not sure! Last I saw he hooked up with some girl and moved back to Montana I believe.
