"Self-taught developer's 4-month Metroidvania game earns life-changing profits in 2023"
Pseudoregalia, a retro 3D Metroidvania game developed by a self-taught developer named Rittz, has become a surprise hit, selling over 28,000 copies and receiving overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam. The game was made in just four to five months, including its initial game jam build, and has now "totally changed the trajectory" of Rittz's life, allowing him to focus on game development full-time. Pseudoregalia's success has inspired Rittz to continue creating games, with his next project, a roguelike platformer called Electrokinetic, already in the works.
