Game Dev Budget Estimator

stanestane/game-dev-budget-estimator

Help a beginner or early-stage game team estimate the likely budget for a game concept based on scope, target milestone, current team, skill coverage, work model, and geography. Use when someone asks how much a game might cost, what budget range they should expect, whether their current team meaningfully reduces cost, what missing roles would add to budget, or how to estimate cost for a prototype, vertical slice, release, or live F2P project. Ask for missing information when concept, team, scope, or cost assumptions are unclear, then provide a rough budget range, main cost drivers, hidden cost buckets, and ways to reduce spend.
