Hey Dave, I do game dev as a hobby (and I'm hoping to release a new game to Steam soon.) What is your current level of game dev prowess?

Ronnie!! My Bachelor's was in game art and design, I've developed several games in various languages/IDEs (Actionscript, Java, and RPG Maker), and I spent a few years doing art tech at a dev studio in MA!
Okay, so you're properly educated in the technical aspects and are looking for a proper career. I'm already in over my head on trying to help! But, the best advice I ever heard for getting a job in gaming (at least in a small studio) is that the best resume is a finished game.

A proper career would be great, but right now I'm just trying to get myself in the game. Comics took over for a while there, but it feels more and more like a dead end every day.

I feel the same way, that's why I'm trying to get a proper release. I personally think you should make the smallest game you can think of on your own, make it look great with your art style, and release it on Steam and/or http://itch.io
