My Struggles

Ported from my previous blog: https://winsenjournal.blogspot.com/

Recently I participated in a game jam, and although it doesn’t seems much, it was the greatest self -achievement of my life so far. I finally completed a game made from scratch. I felt like this would change everything, this is where I’ll start to rise as a game developer. I’ll complete my next games consistently, and in no time I’ll become a well-known game developer.

But life doesn’t work that way. Ever since the end of the jam, I began making my next game feeling motivated. Unfortunately, I’m young and easily got distracted. In my free time, I often find myself procrastinating instead of working on my game. A lot of times when I was able to choose between working on my game or playing game, I got lazy and choose to play instead. It should be the other way around.

I sometimes feel that I can’t achieve what I want to achieve, that I could never be like those who already succeeded, basically just lose my motivations. But, I understand that all those people that I admire had had the same struggles as me, and I’m actually capable to become the type of developer that I want to be.

At this point of this post, you’d probably already understand what I’m trying to say. I need to act now. I have to fight the resistance that’s preventing me to reach all my potentials. I gotta keep motivating myself, push through and I know one day I’ll achieve all of my dreams.

That being said, I’m writing a short story that I’ll use to develop my next game. Actually I’ve been trying to write the story for a while now. But like I said, I got lazy.

Expect me to finish writing the story in the next few days. Meanwhile, why don’t you check out my game that I made in the game jam that I mentioned? It’s free, and is available for PC and Mac. Download link below
