Work it!



It's been a rough few months. A lot of things have changed, both in my personal and professional life. But I'm back. And it's time to get things done!

Turns out - it takes a lot of work to get a game out!

big shock there, huh?

Well, I was prepared. Kinda. I think it was about a year ago I said that making a computer game - from scratch - takes a lot of work. Thousands of man-hours are required. And it's not like I wasn't prepared. I think it was around a year ago, on this very blog, that I said that making a computer game takes a lot of work. Well - I was right. And wrong.

Making a computer takes huge amounts of work. No matter how much work you think it takes - it's more. It's ten times more. And no matter how much work you think THAT is - you're still wrong.

So, let this be a warning. I'm not trying to discourage or scare anyone. What I'm trying to say is quite simple: making a computer game is a huge undertaking, one that you should consider carefully before committing to. And once you do - do it right.

Hell, if EA can do it - I'm sure I can!!!
