I had the same issue. My first game through I barely broke the goal to get to move and had money issues too. What I found is when I hired just one person I could not make a fancy enough MED game to get the sales I needed. I eventually, hired two people ASAP and was able to make better games and get better sales.

Heh, pretty much I saw the above link and it sloved my problem. I couldn't find the link browsing around.

Just remember like in real life: Build Capital before taking risky moves.

You don't have to move to a new building right away,and you don't have to hire new employees right away. Try to make sure you'll be safe to hire while still affording a fully featured game (with an engine that isn't too outdated), and advertising to make it known.

It may seem like "Bigger Game is Better", but if you can't afford to get the word out and get good ratings you may not sell enough to make bank.

When I beat the game the first time I waited until I had about 3 Million dollars saved up. Mostly from one or two 8 or higher games.

Stay in the garage untill you have over 5 mil and at least 100 fans then move up to the next stage. Only hire 1 guy or girl and then work with them still you get more money, Always advertise your games iff possible.

You should hire 4 people straight away, and only spend 80k on finding them so they have low stats. Then you can train them and this means your games are constantly getting better than the one before it.
