How much time do you spend making your game?

I was complaining to myself (as I often do) about how little time I get to actually make my game, and I wondered how much time the average RM user spends per day working on their project.

It's BS, really. I have a better compy here at work that at home, but I can't use RMVX because the 'net filter here at the station won't let VX validate its keycode. Sooooo...

I get around 30 minutes a day. Blerg.

I myself have varied times depending on my schedule. Sometimes I'll have as little as 20-30 minutes, sometimes I can devote hours. All depends on my workload at the time.

I'm pretty much the same as Zylos. Except I usually get 10-20 minutes.

I have no life XD
sooooo
around 3 hours a day!

Sometimes all I want to be is a missing person.

Some days I spend a minute working on it, and other days I spend 6 hours working on it, but never in between.  I just have to be in an RPG-making mood.

Total time spent on my current project:  3 years.

Whoa, you're devoted to your game. O_O

Gosh, I don't feel so frustrated now.

I get to spend about 3 (full) days a week, but then it's not my game, and it's my job.  Doesn't make it any less fun/interesting though

I'm glad I'm not alone, although mine has been 5 years already =_=

Less than a minute per day.

I browse the internet and forums way too often to stay focused.

That's what happened to me during summer.

A couple hours a day here and there? Sometimes I'll take a 5 minute break when some weird scripting error comes around poking it's head up. Other times, I'll spend a bit of time relaxing from work or my project at Hastings and walk out after paying for $20-$150 worth of stuff. Outside of work, I have no obligations so I spend as much time as I want on it.

30 mins a day is good if you can do it everyday 
i usually give an hour to every hobbie i got, an hour to play guitar, an hour to study, an hour for gym, an hour for soccer, an hour to read a book,some hours for girlfriends and boyfriends if im in a good mood and usually 2 hours to work in my game : ) 5 days a week usually

Well if you want to be technical like everyone else, the game I've been making (or moreso, wanting to make) has gone through many phases over the past 8 years, since essentially the day I got RM2K.  I used to spend hours a day (maybe 5-7) working on a project.  Now I spend about 1 hour a day tops working, but the quality of my work and the speed at which I produce is exponentially higher, and thus it's better than when I worked 7ish hours a day on a project.

On such a note, I'm on my 24th iteration of the menu system (obviously not all came to full fruition), and as such, I made my current menu in about 5 hours of work from having nothing to being done, not including time spent making resources.  Down from when I would spend 2-3 months on a menu.  I'm only on CBS #9, sadly, and the development of this kind of works around someone elses schedule, so I can't develop it as I would prefer.

I am currently working on a game. I have been working on this game for a year now. The game is called The Fantasmic World of Magic. I have been mainly isolated on this game. Doing my own scripts and making my own sprites, but recently wanted to see what other smart people can do.

I would say the game is about twenty percent done. 

i spend alot of time, out of school and no job because im waitng to jump state to go to school again, i get any where from 10 hours a day to work on it but i "burn the game out" and decide to take a breack from it till another day, and go do stuff with friends.. but im sure all that will change when i get in to school and get a job i'll probly only get 30 min - 1 hour a day if im lucky

Well since I have been making my game it has been when im home from school and when I have done atleast 2 hours of school work at home for the day, then I usually just be lazy and sit on the computer so thats usually a whole night, but then again I do spend time with my friends so it depends the whats going on in the day, it varies for me but the max I have spent on it would be about 4 hours lol

As much as I wish to sit down and make the game...I can't...I'm always busy...Then when I do get the time...its basically...testing different features of the program.

I started work on my project about six months ago, and I'm not even fully done with my first town, yet everyone who knows I'm working on it complains that I don't get anything done... But I'm sure that after all the scripts I want done are done, it will go much faster...

I expect to be done in 2 years... If I remain working on it at the pace I am now, however, it will take closer to 5...

As you could tell from the dates on the postings, lately I have had no time to do ANYTHING including work on the game. I'm about to enter a more laid back time, (I hope), that will allow me to do both my own game and work on Brute squad material. If I get an hour each day, I'll be happy.

About 20 minutes a day. Its a small project and I like it so far. 

about 2- 4 hours a day

2-3 hours a week on average. Any more than that and I begin to lose interest out of boredom.

I get that. I went through a TON of content in a month or so, and then stopped working from a mix of boredom, writer's block and other projects.

I used to work on projects 2-3 days straight, either cutting back on sleep or not sleeping at all. But for the past year I have only been working on my current project about...15-25 minutes a week? If I am trying to develop something CMS based though, I sometimes spend hours on it a day, mostly due to the excitement rush of having it complete.
