indie game finances

[Jack Aidley]

Another thing to consider, Jack, is that certain costs of the convention - not the most costly, certainly - but certain costs these guys would be spending anyhow. At least for me, I can say that I go to these conventions whether or not I have a product to sell. They're fun, you know. It's just nice to be able to say that those costs are expenses in these terms.

Indeed so. I expect, as well, for most indie publishers the payoff of simply having people buy and play the game is a major reward. Hell, I'd be stoked if (like Luke) over five hundred folks had forked out hard earned cash for one of my games regardless of if I made any money out of it.

I was simply looking at it from the profit/loss point of view.
