Hi Josh: Well, $400 is better than nothing to be sure, but if you had to pay out #$400 for sounds, music, and acting, which is typical for an audio game, you will actually end up with nothing for your labor. That is why I hesitate to venture into the Android market at this time, because I'd end up getting little payment for the time and energy involved and would probably only make barely enough to cover the costs for the minimum sounds, music, and probably some voice acting. Of course, that assumes I use commercial sound libraries, musicians, and voice actors rather than volunteer work which varies in quality from person to person.
What you choose to do with your time is another matter. If this is something you really want I suggest you get a book on Java programming and study it. The only way the Android audio games market will grow is by people who are dedicated to the platform and who have no interest in making a large financial profit off of it. Like Linux Android is more or less for those who like the operating system enough to develop apps and games for it as well as be an end user of the software. Cheers!
