>"I haven't played any games at all in the last year. I worked on 10000000. That was the deal I made with my wife -- I would make the game but that was it, it was my project." Luca Redwood spent a year in monastic isolation with no free time distractions besides new prototypes of 1000000, getting a little better each time.

I really envy this kind of drive. My dream is to be that "bedroom programmer" making small games and it seems like there is simply no time.




There's time, you just have to figure out where else you're spending it.

Cut out any free overtime at work, cut out TV, cut out video games and books... and there's a lot of time.

I think it would have been a different story for the Luca Redwood if he had a toddler vs having a pregnant wife
