I work 1-2 hours a day on my game. I'm curious to see how much everyone else does.

I remember there being a thread on this before, but I couldn't find that in the brief moment I spent searching for it.

Anyway, for me it's 0. Too lazy and uninspired to increase that.

It's Summer, so I'd say about 6-10 hours with weekends off.

3-5 hours usually. i could work more but i found that it becomes drudgery and the work suffers if i work longer hours, with no actual increase in productivity. but this varies on the type of task; if it's simple tasks that i'm working on i may work 10 or even 13 hours a day on something, but if it's complex or creative tasks i prefer 3-5 hours

Every weekday day, between 3-4 hours after dinner, on weekends I can spend a few hours working, but it's highly random.

1 hour each day during the week, and 4-6 on Saturday and Sunday.
I will like to work more time during the week, but it is impossible for me, I usually work (on my regular job) 9-12 hours, so then 1 hour on the game it is already quite a lot for me...

I try to put in at least 1 hour a day but usually I'm too tired and my brain just gives up Crazy

Well, my contract say 8 hours per day, but then the reality is different. That's what happen in highlt competitive fields and environments: it does not matter what is legal or not, you will work as much as you can. Because there will always be someone working more than you.

That does not mean that I like it!

I have a "home office", So i could theoretically work whenever but I try to keep the discipline of working from 9am to 5pm each weekday, some days I wake up sick or whatever so I let myself sleep in, but even then I probably still find myself working the same hours, just at a later time

I'm currently self employed so I spend most of my waking time working on games. I would estimate it's between 10-12 hours per a day. I love to program and work on games, though, so I would be coding something either way.
