What do you do while you program? - Mariotroid - 01-30-2018
I don't have many friends. I have my girlfriend, you online friends and my girlfriends friends. I've tried to stay social instead of just working on creative projects. However I've always been introverted. I just don' want to become completely involved in my programming to the point that I focus on nothing else. I play games from time to time and (try) to krep up with some shows I like. Anyway, how do you leave off being super involved in your game development? Do you watch tv while you program or draw or sprite? Do you program a bit then watch tv later? Or am I just weird and I need to prioritize my time better?

When it comes to programming, I usually find I'm most productive when I get "in the zone" and work for a while without distractions. I'll listen to background music, and occasionally I'll have Skype or Discord open, but that's about it.

I usually listen to music or talking in the background, like podcasts or To Catch A Predator

I usually listen to music that fits the theme of what I'm programming or making a sprite of. It helps me "get into the right mood" in a way.

I usually listen to music or YouTube videos in the background, usually Let's Plays, typically Chip and Ironicus or Retsupurae.

Listen to music. Anything else is going to distract me. These days I feel like I'm distracted all the time.
