Hello Turtles, this post is late, very late and I’m going to make it straight to the point:

Indie Adventure: July 2018

Income: $413.80

• $300 Personal Investments
• $92.66 Archer Sales (birthday sale)
• $2.32 Interest from Savings
• $18.82 Viewer Donations

For the purpose of these reports income is defined as the money that has reached my hands, or more technically the adventure bank/paypal accounts.

Expenses: $168.50

• $5.00 Linode Servers
• $51.80 Website domain
• $111.70 Contract for track pieces and blog content.

This is straight forward, the loot I’ve spent hard earned gold on during the month.

Sales / Sources:

• $84.50 for 2 sales of Archer
• $46.87 from super supportive Twitch viewers

Important note here, Sales/Sources contains money that may, or may not, have reached the accounts via income. The actual values may be inflated from what actually gets pulled in, say from distribution platforms taking a cut, cuts for transferring money.

Tracked Hours:

• 130.5 hours

Adventure Totals:

  $1725.47
+  $245.30 ($413.80 - $168.50)
= $1970.77

Note: There is a discrepancy from June end to July start; likely caused by some things I had to change/adjust for in my accounting sheets. This should be the last and only time this adjustment occurs.

Future Quest:

During the month of August, now nearly over, I am looking deeper into starting a company, and continuing development of a rocket boosted combat racer with big air, deciding where it is going and getting lap timing in to the game.

Fletcher and I will be streaming Indie Tavern: Round 3 on September 2nd, 9am to 10am ET. Go to the link to setup a reminder!

In an attempt to be completely transparent with my Indie Adventure I will post information about the quest each month. This will also be discussed with Fletcher from Noctem Studios on the first Sunday of every month on the Indie Tavern livestream. As a low-level adventurer, I suspect Read the rest of this entry »
