Make living with coding game making tool?

was2_0 · 2006-04-03T01:06:53

I just wonder how much money possible that author of popular game making tools (such as Game Maker and Games Factory) make from them so far? I ready to write a game making tool as part of work, hope you can give me some ideas. THANKS! Is it possible that I maintain the development by donations from user(freely)? then how much I possible get? How many people willing like to cost money to register it if I limit function or valid time of the software? Is there other way to make money from it? Is it possible that I make full living from it?(suppose it is popular enough and I update it continually, suppose I cost $500 per month for living?) THANKS!!!
