is it possible to get residence in my situation?

so all my income is from solo gamedev and my patreon. I don’t have a degree, day job, hell i didn’t even finish high school. I can support myself the only issue is that I believe i need a degree or some employer to sponsor me in japan (i dont think thats much of a possibility) to obtain residence. I’ve also heard of going the student route to study japanese there but im not sure how that goes down. If it helps i’ve studied the language for 2 years and have been pretty serious this past year. Any advice on the avenue i should go to be able to permanently live there?

    You generally need both unless you got $100k to buy a business manager visa.
