Good news! I have found where your avatar came from!
So how is this good news you ask?

I keep seeing the same people in this topic. XD

Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

So today I had my first driving lesson...

If just steering alone stays this hard, I cannot begin to think how intensive having to constantly know everything happening around you will be, let alone at speeds higher than 25 mph. OTL

why release it then
also eventually the car just becomes an extension of your body

like, you stop thinking and just start doing things automatically

it's even better if you have one car you use consistently, so you can learn all its little idiosyncracies

With enough practice it'll become second nature. Also note that not all cars control the same way, but again it's something that's achieved with practice.

To torment you. It kind of came out of personal disdain for the common mistakes SMBX users make with their fangames, so I'm making it to provide a solid example of what you should never do when making a Mario fan game.

I've already make a level that's way too long, an overblown red coin hunt level, and a broken scrolling level. :D
I always felt the driving school's cars were intentionally harder to drive and less responsive. Think of it like training under Master Roshi having to wear a 50 lbs. turtle shell on your back.

Yeah, cause that hasn't been done before xD

I am now certain that you are not scum and are just town trying to play scum as hard as possible.

Steering will quickly get easier as the motorique is memorized by your subconscious, but enviromental awareness is simply something that requires allot of concentration, even for experienced drivers.

Well, I guess it went a little better at the end of the hour than at the beginning already, but it's mostly fear of getting the dimensions of the car wrong, as it stretches so far to the front, back and right.

I'll have another lesson tomorrow, so I guess I'll just see.

Yeah, I know. I always get really exhausted and have a headache after I practice driving. :O

we have enough wannabe tongues in false cheeks sayin' to us what shouldn't be done

what's harder to find is the real article -- you know, some shit that's actually fun?

all it is at this point is a way to ignore your own fears that you'll fall for the same. stop gazin' your navel, great lotus-eater, and make you a fuckin' real game.
tldr I think people like to bring extreme cases to the forefront and paint an exaggerated, immensely generalized picture of common game-making shortcomings as a way of lowering the bar for themselves. it's everyone's obsession lately (I say lately, but it ain't just 'lately') to have something to point at and go "well, at least I'm not that", and I think that's straight-up paralytic to a person's development as an artist.

Oh god.

How do you people motivate yourselves to make the game.
That's what I'm wondering.
