Exactly. Aside from your wife and son I'm sure you've got an actual job that
demands your attention, and if it involves using a computer I can totally
understand why you'd be feeling burned out. I had a temporary job working at
a radio station, and while It was cool to operate some of the equipment I
would definitely not have wanted to come home to the same thing.

Vender: No pizza. Only Khlav Kalash.

Hi Dark,
No, jobs and game programming aren't mutually exclusive but it can be
tiring to do both. If you spend 8 to 10 hours a day behind a computer
programming for employer x and come home to do more of the same your hands
will get tired, your mind begins to fuzz out, and at that point of the day
all you want to do is open a Coke and sit back and relax in front of the
television or listen to a good audio book. Who wants to program when you
have done it for 8 or 10 hours already.

Then again, when I started playing accessible games I had a narrower
deffinition of what a computer game actually was, and it wouldn't have
occurred to me to count something like computerized versions of board or
card games for some very odd reason.
I now of course know better, ---- but I agree Tom.
I'm not a huge fan of E-mail heckling or petitions, but maybe some sort
of contact from the community to Justin would be vaguely in order, sinse
we certainly miss the in put of new games, and even Liam, ---- who has a
coding job has proved that development and jobs aren't mutually
exclusive, ---- even if developement does have to slow down somewhat.
Beware the Grue!
