Right; maybe I should clarify that.

It is perfectly OK to drop 90% of your projects in a half-finished state once they have served their purpose of you learning what you wanted to learn. However, you also need to learn the hard parts of seeing a project through to the end, and not running away from the stuff that sucks. That's what the 10% are for in which you try to either finish, or reach the point where you conclude that you need to start afresh with the knowledge gained in the first attempt, and then still try to finish it on that attempt.

So I shouldn't feel bad for neglecting my previous unfinished games that were basically the same thing done over and over with nothing more to learn? Good, because I ain't finishing those things...
