How easy is it to, first of all, come up with a game that is completely functional and works across different platforms and then to market it and release it in a very competitive global environment?

Coming up with a game is probably the easiest part.

I think it's also a very fun aspect of game development.

But carrying through and making the game from beginning to end on a professional level is the aspect that is quite a bit harder.

Because when you release a game as a commercial product, there's many other considerations you need to add to it beyond just making a fun game, such as accessibility features and other options that you might not immediately consider.

Marketing is quite possibly one of the hardest aspects and it is also one that I found out the hard way how big of a difference it makes and how much time and effort it takes.

It's essentially just a whole other aspect of video game development that could be its own separate thing.

But where's the sweet spot there?
