Since this is community building, I have paused all my work and was relaxing taking a break when i thought I'd surf around Indie Hackers and see what's poppin up.
---Start---
I am Karanveer and I come from a game dev background. Worked with publishers like Voodoo, ZPLAY, SHAREit etc. Worked and tested 50+ prototypes with KPIS and A/B Tests including but not limited to CPIs, CTRs, Retention rates D1% -> D28%, etc.. one of which even reached 10 million downloads combined on iOS and Android.
Now I am taking a break from that and exploring the indie world, not that I'm new to this, I believe it's been 5 years that been a part of the indie world, but never taken on a project from this realm. I'm just casually surfing by and if I happen to find some cool project, (or even a cool person) I'd be happy to partner up with them as well. I'm aware of the technicality of games and web apps, but I'll be diving more towards providing my skillset outside programming, some of which include but are not limited to UI designs to UX systems, taking on Easier Onboarding of users, Refining complete UX for better retention, understanding our pain points, controlled scalability, continuous feedback loops, etc..and later down the road, once we start seeing some MRR along with a decent profit margin, on mutual agreements, we can either reinvest back into the project as bootstrapped or go on to investors who have a similar vision as us.
This is a later stage if the project sees +cashflow within a few months, right now discussing this would be a waste of time, which could be used on the project. The issue with investors is that most of them are money-minded but lack vision of that product and I'd be with you on this if the end goals and the roadmap of the project don't align.

So What are you building btw?
