Cliff Harris breaks down what Ridiculous Space Battles cost to make and market, ahead of its 16 November Early Access launch.
Development: £915.20 in total: CGTrader spaceship assets (£441.93), Scenario AI art (£296.51) and ElevenLabs AI voice clips (£176.76). He doesn't count his own coding time.
Marketing: Most of the spend. Reddit ads account for £4,502.67, with £974.13 on YouTube promotion and £567 on a newsletter he found tedious and not worth the results.
Price and outlook: The game costs $24.99. Based on an aspirational goal of 1,000 sales, he estimates about £1,000 a year for his time, but says it might sell 100 copies or 10,000.
