Party-reason topic.

Note that I'm only writing this post to become a party-member, however as many knows game development and long hours at the computer contributes to a lot of stress. Personally I use productivity software, right now I use Eyeleo to save my eyes and move away from the computer from time to time. I also use f.lux which save eye strain during night. Wishful thinking is that it also makes me go to bed earlier.

Obviously there's gonna be more game development, what's your way of not to make computer a main part of one's life in term of short breaks and such?

And with that: Party-member! Wuhu!

Lots of instrument playing mixed in with taking walks outside for inspiration or fresh air or whatever it is people go outside for these days.
I use f.lux as well, it's one of the first things I install on a fresh OS.

I've been using this practice for a few years now to help take breaks during development while maintaining focus on whatever I'm doing.

If I understand it correctly I would use a pommodoro which help me quantify how much time I spend on things?
