    Well, I'm finishing up one. Have the artwork and assets being made up for two more, and then another 2-3 lined up in the queue as potential projects. I try to only work on one thing at a time, but do pre-production work for the next thing at the same time so that is ready to go when I get there.

    Then again, I design my games pen and paper before ever jumping into GameSalad. I like to have a plan before action.

    I released my game way too early for that very reason. I was spending a lot of time on it and I wanted to get to other games AND get something up on the app store. I'm glad I did it. I learned a LOT!

    I've got six projects on the go, and only in the last month said to myself: "Right get your arse in gear and concentrate on just one" so that's what I'm doing now. i guess the advantage of having other part-finished projects, like other GS gamemakers, is that it's perhaps easier to kick-start any particular project again when you get round to it.

    So in my opinion, it's great you've so many game ideas, and shouldn't worry about jumping from one to the other unless you never do concentrate on just one full-time. But when the time's right though, you'll hopefully do that; one project at a time but with a nice backlog ready and waiting for more work! :-)

    Whatever creative pursuit you have, I believe it's detrimental to work on more than one thing at a time, GS game-making included; always best to "settle down" and give your full attention to one project at a time.

    Boy isn't that the truth.
