The Dink Network

And then theres the interruptions<sp?> of everyday life. I find it highly frustrating to be working on an aspect of a project, to be at a point where your creative juices are flowing and then, WHAM! Your cat knocks over something and breaks it, your spouse/sibling/parent/etc, calls you needing something done. Not sure about others but it throws me completely out of the mindset needed to be creative. The flip side of that is trying to work at night when others are asleep and you get complaints from said inturruptors of creativity for staying up all night/being antisocial/running up the power bill/etc.. Its like ya just cant win no matter what. The pay off comes to all the nightmares and depression and urges to kill your entire family so you can work in frickin peace (just kidding.. I think); when you see your game being played by others. I know for myself that the few emails I have recieved from people who really like what I have created balances out the negatives experienced during the process.
Until next time. These are the rambling thoughts of an indy developer.
