Actually I'll start working on it once my workload gets smaller and I get more computer time. My sisters have been monopolyzing it lately.

Also talking about making games, I have tried to make games before (see Dancing Potatoes of Evil thread, somewhere in this section) and seeing things taking shape, even if poorly, is great. It's this point where your idea stops being "just an idea" and becomes "something".

Sadly, I am not well versed in programming whatsoever and while I've tried learning some things on my own, it's really difficult without any support and decent classes nearby. This is why I relied on others to get programming done (as I can make graphics, music and design by myself). But this has been proving to be my Achilles's heel for a long time. I don't want to criticize the amazing people who tried to bring life to my works, but 99% of the times, my projects died due to lack of programming progress and unreliability on their part. Thankfully, some people are really hardworking and are really showing their work. This makes me feel incredibly happy: I feel like I'm working in a group instead of dragging everything alone. But I would like to program for real. This way, if my project fails, I'll know it'll be entirely my fault instead of being halted due to others and being unable to work it out. You don't know how sad it makes me when people ask about my projects' progress and I can't do anything other than shrugging and PMing the programmer.

Maybe it sounds selfish, but that's how I feel sometimes.
