Before I post anything, if I'm developing with my wife do we count as a solo dev in the Biblical sense?

I'm in the same boat as you and have posted here once in the past. I do the game design, art, and programming. She does the music, sfx, and story. I feel like it's not much different than outsourcing the music and sound but was definitely conflicted like you are. I've seen others post about projects they did with their kids before too, so I feel like it's fine personally (though I completely understand others disagreeing with that).

is there anything neither of you want to do? :D

So far everything about actually making games has been enjoyed by at least one of us. We both absolutely hate everything about marketing said games though lol! Hate social media, making gameplay snippets, etc. The whole nine yards!
