What do I mean?  Well Let me tell you my story.  I used to do this as a hobby.  I loved to make cool things render to the screen.  I would play around with it for a few hours a week.  Then it turned into a few hours a day.  From there I gathered people, they wanted to make games.  So it turned into 20 hours a week.  At that point I mostly coded, still seemed like my vision of what I though game development was was true.

I then started to think, if we get a game to the finish line, how do we sell it?  Then entered marketing time.  I started about 5-10 minutes every day.  That turned into 30 minutes.  Then it turned into and hour.  Before I knew better, it was my entire 20 hours a week.  Is that bad?  No.  I am driven by success, so as I got feedback and validation from people, like you, I spent more time doing it.

Now, I reach a problem.  The fans, followers, and generally great people that I strove to entertain are pushing me further.  I am out of time.  Eventually I need to code the game, keep up marketing, and innovate in both areas.  We have to get this to be a full-time equation soon or things have to be cut.  Problem is you cannot cut either development or marketing because you’d be cutting your own projects head off.

I love this problem, can’t really have a better one.  I just have to solve it and continue to grow.  Love all you people out there that drive me, keep it coming and I do pass it on to our team that is working on the game.  Problems generated by success mean you are participating in life and not just along for the ride.
