* I love the people -- I enjoy working with creative folks (artists, designers). As for programmers, everyone who worked in gamedev for 5+ years is batshit insane in their own way, so they're fun to be around, too.
* The project is exciting, and no one will do it if we don't. I'd absolutely LOVE to play the game we're making.
* I'm somewhat irreplaceable due to the nature of small teams working on big projects in a developing country. People with comparable experience prefer moving to Sweden or US for reasons I don't quite understand ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
* The salary is good for where I live. Nothing outrageous, but I can get a house, a car, and would still have some money to spare.
* 100% full remote
* I'm a bit overqualified. In other words, at the exchange of ~20% lower salary, I get the extra time to do things my way, or even slack off half the day if I feel like it.
There is one single reason I'm considering moving (to even less developed place), and it's that I'm concerned the complete lack of stress in my day-to-day life will turn me into a weakling, and when bad things come (and they always do), I won't be ready.
