Keep your goals to yourself
Aw heck, I want some gratification. I'm gonna upload a beta for Epiquest 2, even though there's no story :-)
... edit, but that's kind of like throwing in the towel for a lil while.

I wish it were suicide booths :-) Its consierge kiosks. It looks like a giant ipod touch or a giant ipad.
I always called it the soul crushing machine. Its imposing and it has a presence. Like even if you're not looking at it, you know its there in the room with you. In fact phase 4 it will have a webcam and a microphone and live operators... inside of it :-)
The funny thing is once I was done with phase 1 I went to a convention center and found a kiosk that did the same thing and blew mine away :-) I loved it a lot more, plus I can tell that designers probably made it better in 1/10th the time that it took me to do exactly what they wanted me to do. They had a committee to tell me what to do, which I'm used to with my original job, but its my manager that meets with committees and not me :-)
As for showing exes Epiquest. I have other professional products and services that I've done and made. They're more impressive. But that's because I work, I don't talk about it :-)
No one in my family really knows what I do, because I don't talk about things.
Maybe that means I'm autistic. They can work for hours on end without talking or thinking about anything else.

Short Games
A short game? From short star...
Here's a short game idea worth doing.
3 enemy areas each with a different theme. Each with a different item that lets you progress to the next area
3 towns. Small towns, like Final Fantasy Legened 2 towns
1 final area.
3 tiers of weapons.
3 tiers of enemies.
3 tiers of equipments.

ok so more pertinant to game making :-)
I'd much rather just post my game update by update and say "hey people, here's my game now play it!!!"
But then I'd get tons of people with bugs when they'rejust stuff that I haven't finished yet :-)

How do I make a spoiler tag to hide this long vent about my old boss and my exes that isn't pertinant to game making :-)
So sorry to vent here, but I was working 2 full time jobs at the same time. The second full time job was supposed to be a week, but I made this thing that made a company a lot of money, and will FOREVER make the money. So they hired me on. Then they went to phase 2 after 4 months.
The boss tried to downgrade my pay from $50 per hour to $15 an hour, when the kind of programming that I do is $40 an hour. My manager at my first job told me that I should be making $140 an hour. Basically I made software that will be in 1,000 buildings making $4,000 for them per year EACH.
When I asked for $20 an hour he pointed out all of my flaws and said that's the top of his scope and I'd need to give results. Which with programming there are bugs. Programming is easy, but its the bugs that take the longest time.
The boss is a jerk, he'd explain everything that he wants me to do, then freak out when I don't have it done instantly. Instead of doing it my way, everything had to be done his way which would turn a 10 hour job into 100. The smallest thing that he felt was small would take hours upon hours. Worse yet, the smallest thing would impact everything else.
If there was a bug he would say, "Can you explain to me why there's an error here?" Instead of just saying "there's an error here." Then I'd have to explain it to him what I think was wrong instead of just fixing it.
When I quit, he made me feel lik I was WRONG for giving up when they need me. Honestly his product is perfect as is, and he's already sold 10 kiosks with my software on them.
It was basically like an abusive relationship. He and I made a metal baby that was 6' tall 800 lbs kiosk that his company will forever make money off of. He treated me like shit and tried to pay me under the html guys despite the fact that the html guys are disposable and my code is like hand writing. The next guy needs to know my hand writing and the next guy probably can't do what I did in the first place :-)
I'm so sorry for venting. I really need to. My life hurts right now :-)
Speaking of venting. So with my ex gfs. They'd always plot out our future lives together. Like what our kids would be named. Where we'd live. Uggg... Now that I'm an adult. I get the same thing only now they CARE when I don't contribute. Now they figure well he's not contributing, he must not be that into me.
Women are in love with ideas more than actions. Hoobastank even wrote about it. Its not what you do, its what you say.

Yeah I hate it when people talk about what they're going to do and then NEVER do it. That's why I do it then talk about it.
A lot of my ex gfs get on my case because I never talk about the future. I think about the future all the time, I just never bring it up. I'd rather do it, but I get dumped for having no future and no goals :-)
Funny thing is I end up accomplishing my goals.
The boss of my 2nd full time job would always TALK about everything, what he wanted us to do. Then he'd freak out when I didn't get his goals done. He'd want me to explain every single thing BEFORE I did it and I kept telling him, I'd rather just do the work.
Meanwhile, my original full time job that I've had for 11 years. That manager lets me do the work and not explain it BEFORE :-) Then I givea big long, probably too long report on everything I went through and what's great about what I did.

Which came first: The Story or the Gameplay?
Gameplay. In all successful games in the industry, gameplay always comes first. In FPS they do gameplay first with multiplayer to make sure its fun before they make a 1st person campaign. Mario makes the levels first before the world maps.
