I’ve had a game in development stalled for a month because I’m also writing a story, but the story is also half stalled because I’m replaying a game, and I’m already getting frustrated.
It’s something that is starting to bothering me, it seems like I can’t do something if I’m not completely immersed in it: If I want to watch movies or a series, I must do a marathon; if I want to play a game, I must pass it in less than a week; if I want to make a game, I must get into a Crunch because “reasons”; if I want to write, I must work on making it the best story I’ve ever written so far.
Is this normal? should I not worry so much? or how can I better manage the things I want and need to do?
I don’t know about “normal” (I imagine it depends on how you define “normal”) but I do that and I think it’s fairly common too. Much easier to do 1 thing at a time than many.
