Don’t get down, game development is pretty hard and the lows are low but the highs are pretty high! Why not try a longer game jam but treat it like a shorter one? Just have to try and trick yourself that you don’t have the time! Don’t give up!
I've partecipated in some longer game jams in the past, and i don't really liked them because they're extenuating, but i don't think i've actually tried to limit myself in that way. Thanks, i'll give it a try!! =D
(And no, i have no intention on giving up at the moment, don't worry about that)
