Should I make another level or have a break?

Archive: 19 posts


So as most of you know I've just finished my new level 'Pretty Simple', upto now my creating has been pretty constant and everything I have published is what I've made. (I have no half made levels or anything like that, when I start a project I see it straight through).

I'm not sure whether to get straight back in like I have done so far or take a break for a while.

What do you guys usually do when you finish a level?

Another thing is that Football Manager comes out soonish which always leads to a good 4 months hibernation period, so if I don't make one now...it could be a while!

If you have an idea I say make it. Or finish it and publish it when you haven't played for a while 2009-09-19 19:23:00

Another football manager player eh? I love the game - I say take a break and play this for a few months (only 4 months? I've notched up nearly 30 days of play time on FM09!)

But yes, it'll give you time to play something else and come back with a fresh out look on the game to create something new

4 months is the none-stop-can't-do-anything-else-except-play-FM-time

I'll still play it after that...just won't be as addicted

I have an idea I like in my head, but no idea if I can make the theme work in creation. Something to think about I guess!

Should you give me another masterpiece to play over and over again, or not? Hmm, tough question.

Seriously though, don't force creativity, you obviously have a knack for it and it will come when it's ready.

I agree that you should do what feels right. If you have an idea or just feel like clunking around in create mode... then why not? 2009-09-19 20:01:00

I agree that you should definitely come back when water gets released. We'll miss you if you leave, but it's understandable.2009-09-19 20:16:00

This question should be answered as easily as:

"Do I feel like making another level now? Yes/no". If yes, go ahead. If no, do something else.

water packs comeing out next friday right?Wrong. To my knowledge there isn't a release date for water, it is still in beta stages.

Do you have a source, because I could be completely wrong, I just don't think that's the case.

I think a break would do you some good. Don't take too long of a break though, I'd love to see what you come up with when water comes out .2009-09-19 21:05:00

If you feel full of motivation and inspiration then strike while the iron's hot.

If you don't then take a break.

The armchair psychologist in me says there's a reason you are even asking the question. So... if that reason is a need for validation, allow me to oblige:


You are a fantastic creator and every level you've published has been just nigh shy of a masterpiece. Please make more!

If, on the other hand, you've asked because you're uninspired or just plain tired of the process, let me just say this:


You are a fantastic creator and every level you've published has been just nigh shy of a masterpiece. So take a break, refresh your imagination, and then please come back and make more!

I don't mean to be forceful, but perhaps you could make a shorter level, like a mini-game or a score challenge like all the kids are doing these days.2009-09-19 21:47:00

jackofcourse, if you have no desire to stop creating then don't, but if your getting tired of it then I say take that long break. 2009-09-19 22:05:00

Only just remembered about this thread! It became a little more focused on whether I should make another level or not than I intended haha. While that was the opening question, it was also supposed to be just a general thread about what you guys do after you've finished a level

Apologises I think I worded it badly!

WAY TO FAIL, DUDE

Lol, jk, we all miswrite things sometimes.

Speaking of which, is "miswrite" a word?
