summary
Balancing Monkey Games describes building Before We Leave from hobby prototype to Epic Store launch, using a Kiwi Game Starter entry, a PR contractor, a punchy trailer and a paid Discord idle bot to grow community; Epic offers a minimum guarantee that lets a small team scale and pay staff, and the release hits 50,000 sales. Advice focuses on concrete steps: market analysis, realistic budgets, one clear call-to-action, staged storefront rollout and when to stop adding features.
