A 13-year-old launching on Product Hunt

Two weeks ago I met Ivailo, a 13-year-old boy in Berlin

He was born in New York and currently lives with his mother in Singapore.

Due to Corona, the two of them couldn't travel back home for a couple of months and were stuck in Germany.

Ivailo is a big gaming fan and because of the circumstances he couldn't go to school he started to teach himself game development and create his own game called “Ballin”.

Ivailo

As I find the story very inspiring I support him in the launch of his game. I think his story can motivate many other young people to start their own projects and become Indie Hackers.😍

Next week we will launch his game on Product Hunt.🚀

In the picture above we record a little video about his story and the development of his game.👆

A little teaser of the game

Here is the start screen of Ballin.

Ivailo's project started when he stumbled across a tweet from Jack Butcher saying

I believe that every Indie Maker including me can confirm this! 👋

So his goal with Ballin is to flip $1 on the internet.

Let me know in the comments who don't want to miss Ivailo's launch from Ballin on Product Hunt or has any advice for the launch. I think he could use a little support. 🥳
