Single or Multi, What's Your Episode Preference?

[Hatsune Blake]

I'm honestly quite curious to see what people usually do.
Do you work on one project at a time, dedicating 100% of your effort into it? Or do you spread yourself across multiple projects at a time, equalizing your effort across the multiple projects?

Personally, I'm a single project kind of guy. If I start on more than one project, usually I'll get sidetracked and sucked into one of the few projects, leaving the rest to sadly die.

I prefer to work on multiple things, get bored from one, then continue the other.

Quoting this because, I used to be someone who would work on more than one project at the time. Mostly up to 4 different ones, each having not even 10 levels done!

After some time I often got exhausted and burnout got over me. I then started to stop working at all with SMBX and took a break from it (Yet again)

Now I've started to think about a new Project which I will solely work on and hopefully get a Demo of it out this Month!

If you do multiple projects and feel like abandoning all of them: consider merging them ...

Both single and multi both have benifits and downsides
Single Episode
You can build episodes faster
It tends to get boring and discouraging, as the levels start to blend together. This is just from personal experience though

Multi Episode
It's hard to get bored if each episode is unique in it's own right
You can get a bunch of ideas down on file
Episodes can blend together if you don't have a mindset. If you have a SMB3, SMW and SMB1 style episodes for example it's easy for you to accidentally add or forget stuff

This is just my opinion based off of my experience. I'm personally a multi episode guy.

I remember that when I was working on "The Wrath of Bowser", I was also working on "Super Wario Land X", the first one I managed to finish it but the second one I canceled, I couldn't work with two projects at the same time, some of the canceled episode I remember moving them to The Wrath of Bowser. That is why I prefer to work on a unitary project.

This absolutely depends on the mood and goals I will put. If I do have a good mood, I'll focus on one project and will progress it with lightning speed. However, sometimes I get tired and bored, and I switch to work on other things and projects. Switching between different works is one of the relaxation types.
