How do you balance work and game making?

I have a full-time job now, but I usually work overtime a lot.

I usually make games by myself based on my hobby. Recently, I have been working too much overtime and want to quit, but I don’t think it’s good to quit just for my hobby.

imo, you shouldnt quit your job..develop some game in your spare time. If you hardly find spare time, try develop simple or easy to make game..Or maybe, try hire some of early game developer and ask them to develop game for you..Usually early developer, they wanna develop it for experience, so their demand on gettin something arent that expensive, some of them wanna do it volunteerly

I work on my games during breaks, or at home, whenever I feel like it and whenever there's space. I could honestly be much more efficient with my time, but I don't want to optimize something I love.

Sadly, I don't. I've stopped making games since I started working. Hopefully I get back to it someday, I miss it a lot.
