Zorrentos Sketchbook
I don't have personal experience working in the games industry,
my impression from listening to people talk on their experience in it, hasn't been that of stability.
It is also the very type of job that just let you go

by all means, aim for the games industry but don't sell yourself and consider what really grants you future proofness
often in games, particularly when your'e roped into being a jack of all trades.
you may come out with little significant work to show when the studio drops you for whatever reasons.
you may develop skills but you might get pulled away from the areas you're interested in and have a hard time finding the time to build those skills
you mention this happening to you already

I feel like, the artists I see with true stability in their futures, are the ones that have a body of work recognizable as theirs. the ones that get sought after because they are the best as doing their signature style of work.

when these guys get hired to work on games, they can appeal for a good contract price or salary because they are in possession of skills that are less replaceable.

getting to that skill level when you have as real future proofness as you can, takes directed effort and time.
I just question a little bit if your plan adds up or you may be selling yourself short for some reason, maybe it's what you feel is achievable and safe.

stability, decent salary, good company are still vague as far as an answer to lifestyle.
For me, I considered that I want to be able to work from home, so if i have kids i can spend time with them, i could have the ability to travel any time if I'm working remotely. I want to be independent enough that my personal work can sustain me without needing a company.

with this goals in mind I get clues to the direction to develop my skills.

anyway, I wasnt going to reply or say more but I think youd be doing yourself a disservice buy not aiming a bit higher and considering what really grants stability for artists.

but welcome to disregard what I'm saying too.
these are just my personal thoughts on the matter
I dont know you, and if your'e feeling happy and on track to your dreams then great  Thumbs_up

ps: cheers for the comment in my sketchbook, absolutely no reason you wouldn't get a daily deviation some day

All the best
