In this episode of the Indie Game Development Podcast, I sat down with BenBonk to chat about making Slimekeep, his five-year journey, and what it’s like developing a game from high school to Steam. He shares about wishlists, hard work, and growing as a solo indie dev. BenBonk started Slimekeep in grade 9. Five years later, it became one of the most wishlisted indie games on Steam. This is his story about how Slimekeep came to life, from a game jam game to a hit indie title. No hype—just a real talk with BenBonk about making a game he believed in.
