How do new businesses work

Most business 'bootstrap' at first I.E Do it yourself, they might get some revenue which you can hire contractors or something.

As you grow you might be able to talk to angel investors, or bring in some full-time employees maybe with some equity. You don't necessarily need to be a super star business to get funding, they just want a return or a major sell out. I worked at a business park, and some businesses which got vc funding were pretty lame to be honest. Just the directors knew how to talk crap to get the investors in. A lot failed though.


Then eventually you either sell, go public(in your dreams), or keep the business for cash flow.

or do some moding in order to find some talented individuals who you could form a partnership with.
Your must more likely to get kick starter funding if you can show what else you have done and atleast some sort of progress on whatever you are trying to fund.

if you go with a bunch of concepts and a rough plan of what the game will be like even if it's a good idea a lot of people won't want to fund it if it's miles off.
if you can get some form of beta going within a few months of the kick starter campaign taking place I'm sure you would have much greater odds of getting funded.

start small and simple take a look at some other indie games like don't starve that launched without much contest with a promise to keep developing the game

Btw what type of game do you want to develop? You could probably develop 2d indie game yourself within a few months if your an experienced developer.

However AAA blockbuster game, probably not...
