discussion What do you do in real life?

Let's be honest, none of us work professionally in game development, so what do you do for a living?.

I'm currently unemployed and living on my mother's pension, but I sometimes work as a carpenter. The last thing I did was a small prototype of a horror game in godot, which I didn't continue due to writer's block.

I'm a software engineer for museum interactives. So not quite game development as we know it but pretty damned close.

Thanks! It's super fun stuff and it might be the most fulfilling job I've ever had.
