hey so i’ve been working on this project for almost 5 years and i’ve been at rock bottom in terms of motivation for the past like 2 months. I saw how vetex basically got all that motivation back so quickly and every time i even get to the point of opening studio i don’t even wanna bother staring at code and usually just go do something else it kind of inspired me to ask around; how do some of yall like lose all motivation to work on games or really anything important and just kinda snap out of it
I start daydreaming about my eventual fame and fortune.
But seriously it depends. For me I just watch Anime and TV shows until I get in the mood, or just work on another project to take a break. Although for me it’s different since I have to do it to survive so I separate my personal projects from my work projects.
(Coding in C++ really makes you want to die sometimes)
I don’t, I make it another Reminder On Why I Am A Failure and discourage myself from ever doing anything ever again
its not really about snapping out of having no motivation
if you lose motivation, take a break, do anything else just have fun, and eventually you’ll get that motivation back for the cycle to rinse and repeat
This has happened to me a few times now, I’ve found the most effective remedy is to literally just give in to the urges and then refuse to even think about the game for a few weeks until I feel better again
