relee9:35am - I'm having second thoughts about my project again. I was reading something earlier this morning about burnout in games development, and it made me wonder if I really want to work on any of my projects for the years they'd take. I'm barely working on them at all, right now, even.
I'm not sure there IS a project I want to work really long term on, especially these days. It always felt like I'd have this 'One Perfect Dream Project' that I'd work on for years, maybe my whole life, but there's nothing I'm so passionate about. None of my projects really call out to me like that.
I do my projects partly to learn and partly for fun, and partly with the hope of turning a profit one day... They also give me something I can be proud of and say, "I'm good at this, I can make things."
I'm not sure what I really want to do with myself though. It feels like each project I come up with is just something to keep busy with until the next one comes around.
Besides my current project, I do have others floating in my head right now, but none of them screams out that it's "The One" either. Maybe there is no "The One", in fact there probably isn't. But I'm not sure what to do about it.
Anyways I'm not sure what else to say on the subject. I just wanted to go over my thoughts and post this before I did anything else.
