I've been feeling pretty aimless and depressed lately. I've been mostly just playing video games. I think finishing God's Disdain, something I worked on for nearly a decade, just destroyed me a little bit. Now I have to start something new and that's been really hard. I'm still burned out with game dev but I do still want to make another game. Plenty more, actually. I was thinking of maybe starting a video game review channel since I'm playing a lot of games, or writing a book because I am a petty good writer, or creating some new music for another album. All of these ideas floating around my head but I'm finding it hard to just pick something and dedicate myself to it.
Part of me is also wondering if it's okay to just chill out for a bit, like I released this thing (and it didn't do well at all but that's beside the point) so now I should take a rest and let myself take some time off. There's that tugging at the back of my skull to keep working on stuff though and I can't get rid of it.
@beardalaxy@gameliberty.club come work on the kemoverse
@waifu am I building nuclear weapons or what
@beardalaxy@gameliberty.club we're just making a trading card game in the fediverse https://git.waifuism.life/waifu/kemoverse
@waifu I'll look into it when I get home but tbh I'm looking for more of a personal project and idk how much help I would be on something like this lol
@beardalaxy A break would be nice, but I think you should take into account that a time may come where you simply can't make video games anymore, so you should probably still make games while you still can.
@xianc78 I mean, that kind of applies to everything I thinking of doing though D:
Alright, I think I have somewhat of an idea.
I'll do D&D stuff on Thursday to get prepared for Friday's session.
Then I'll fill the other 6 days with 3 different things. Game dev, writing, and music. 2 per day of the week.
I'll have to do each of them for an hour on their assigned day.
If I end up vibing with one of them more than the others I'll override days.
I'm thinking for music I'll just work on covers for now. I've got a lot that I want to do. For writing, I was working on a cyberpunk world a couple years ago so I think it would be cool to flesh it out and either write a single large story for it or something like an anthology of shorter stories. Then for game dev I really need to get back into learning RPG In A Box with the 3D remake of my old horror game.
Idk what days I'll do all this on yet, but I think I'll ideally put them together so I can ride momentum easier. I imagine it going something like this:
Sat/Sun: Music
Mon-Tues: Game dev
Wed/Fri: Writing
