Dealing with a little bit of burnout

  • May. 30th, 2008 at 7:18 PM

So, things had been going very well with the game we are creating.  

Not saying things are not still going well, but I think I may have been overdoing it.  I was working on the game every day for quite a while and last week, I crashed a bit.  Too wiped out to think about anything game related and wishing I had more energy.  But that is a different topic concerning my lazy ass getting in the gym.  :)

Finding the balance between everything is getting harder.  I really want to concentrate on the game, but it is hard for various reasons.  1.  Lack of energy.  2.  Trying to get things done with my co-authors when all three of us work at different speeds.  3.  Making sure I do not ignore make girlfriend Natalie (our one year anniversary was Wednesday...GO US).  

Of those three I have the hardest time with #2.  I am such a control freak that it is hard for me to have to do things at other peoples pace.  Not to mention I do the most work on the game and then we get together and change everything I think of.  I have no problem with the last part if what we do makes it better, but the control thing is always going to be hard for me.  I want to talk and discuss this quickly, and sometimes the only person I can really do that with is Eloy 

[info]chi_gobbler  He has been very helpful to help me think things through.  He is developing his own game and is almost done.  That is awesome.  

What I have learned about this is that I love the game me and my friends are making, but I am also going to want to make one by myself someday.  

If I can find the energy that is.  :)
