Yeah, unfortunately the game you want to make doesn't always mean profitability. It was interesting hearing Anthony Flack talk about this in his podcast interview. Personally, I've come to the realization that I dont have what it takes (at the moment) to even think about trying to make living doing indie dev stuff. :( Maybe sometime in the future, though...
Good luck with your endeavours, though! ;)
