If you enjoy doing the work then it won’t be difficult to focus. Just like enjoying to play games, people don’t usually procrastinate in that because it’s fun.
If you don’t enjoy it, it’s boring hard work, etc… well what can I say. If you really want to have fun playing your own games in the future, you need to put the work in. It really depends on how much you want to attain a goal, because the way you describe it - it doesn’t sound like you are desperate to achieve it.
I know a lot of this may sound very repetitive of other people, and I’m sorry in advance. I’m also no professional, just a fellow upcoming developer trying to help out others where I can.
Almost all developers lose motivation at some point, and that’s totally fine to do. I think the problem might be this:
You’re still thinking about the game repetitively, and that’s why you keep coming back constantly, even if it is for short periods. I would recommend, as MightTea stated earlier, a break. A real break. Not just thinking about the game, picking up a new hobby for a week, something that completely turns your mind from the game. For me, that’s what seems would be best in this scenario.
You can feel free to take it whatever way you like, but above all else, don’t give up if you really think you can do this eventually. Try to keep in mind why you’re making the games when you do come back, and hope that your motivation repairs itself.
Again, I’m not a professional in any path of psychology, but I feel more often than not people go through this, and hopefully this helps somewhat.

Finishing projects is a skill. Like any skill, you can practice and train to get better at it. I’d suggest giving yourself a small limited time with a specific goal. I like to do short gamejams. I let the quality go as much as I can and focus solely on completing the project by the deadline. If I like the project afterwards, I will have all the time in the world to work on the quality.
See if you can make a project or two, each with just an hour.

I was in that too, i have just come out of it. For the last months i have been also having no motivation, i came out of it by taking a 1-2 month break just relaxing and playing games with friends. I think the reason that your half a year break didn’t work was cause you were constantly stressing maybe? Or you were constantly thinking about making games.
Take a break without stressing or trying to come up with ideas, just have fun. And just forget that roblox studio even exist, you stated that in your break you sometimes used to work on games, don’t do that. I played on a minecraft realm with some friends as a break. And when i came back i was full of motivation.
Just a suggestion, it might not work for you but it is atleast worth trying.
See, I don’t have any real friends.
Nobody likes me, I’m unpopular, and all of my friends on ROBLOX and discord either ignore me, don’t know who I am, or rarely ever come online
So that’s crossed out.
@iiBobaPotato I get what you mean, but I just can’t stop thinking about working on my game, but at the same time I don’t want to work on it.

Try maybe playing a singleplayer game then? There are tons of singleplayer games out there, or get some actual good friends. There are tons of discord servers just for people wanting friends.
Things on top of things on top of things to do.
First my discord server got hacked, and this server is imperative to my work.
I haven’t gotten around to fixing it fully, as it housed over 130 channels and over 30 roles with over 100 members and channels with messages from more than a year ago
All of them the bot had access to fully deleted or filled with spam.
Then I had to transfer my data from old to new computer, which arrived at the december of 2019, yet I still haven’t gotten around to transfering it.
The deadline I was given by my parents was two weeks, but it’s been more than seven months.
The pressure of finishing the game and then finishing other projects and working on them was given before the december of last year.
I was supposed to finish the game on january,
By now I still haven’t finished half of the game I was supposed to finish by january.
Please understand, I have lost so much motivation, and I have so many things to do. I’m breaking from inside out.
And there is so, so much more planning ahead of me. I destined myself to finish all these things before I turned 13.
But here I am, 13 and one month old, still procrastinating on Youtube videos and writing on this forum.
I also tend to waste my time on purpose on other projects just for the sake of stalling.
I’m really super messy.
I can’t do anything on time.
I even started learning russian and making minecraft mods in this amount of time.
Yet I can’t not finish my project, it’s one of my many life goals.
And it’s not because of this quarantine.
I was forced to go on a 16 day business trip with my parents, and I was excited as first thinking it would clear my head a bit.
I was wrong. I was stuck inside of the crappy tiny hotel 95% of the time wasting away on my little small iPad screen. I was yearning to go home.
And now I’m back home, back in the same cycle I was before the trip.
You don’t have to be a millionaire game developer by 13. I’m only slightly older and haven’t fully made a game yet, it takes time to get your head around Roblox, especially with scripting, building, AND mesh-making, if you’re into that, on top of the financial aspects of Roblox. Take your time with it, don’t let the frustration of not getting things done break you down. Stuff like this takes years to become worth it. Adopt Me didn’t just become the best game overnight, developers of the game have been developing for ages before even thinking of the idea of that sort of game.
You’ll eventually get there, it takes time.

This is the type of ignorant motivation I didn’t want to hear.
I’ve already wasted so much priceless time. I could have done things I could but instead I chose to stall, stall stall stall stall.
I said it before many times and I’ll say it again, I don’t care for money. I just want to accomplish the things I want to, accomplish more, more more more more
Life throws lemons after another lemon lemons and lemons. Personal problems going on between my parents, it’s making me black
I’m sorry, that was a bit dark.
I don’t want this to go on anymore.
Yeah, that’s fine by me. Hope it gets better for you man, it does get better eventually.
If developing is getting to the point of constantly and severely affecting your mental health then deving is not for you. To overcome procrastination is overcoming a form of laziness.
I overcome procrastination in several different ways. The promise of money and I get to see the limits of what I can do is a starter. I don’t easily get bored because when I want to build something (for myself) I find something I find interesting and wait on it a little, thinking how I could improve it and how it’d look and this builds up “tension” or a want to make it so I do it.
Suffering from mental issues is not an excuse or a definite outcome for procrastination. You do not have to succeed in every way and build every single day.
Please attempt a healthy and balanced lifestyle. Eat right, exercise, go out, make time for the stuff you love to do. This is a KEY source for motivation.
A messy desk creates a messy mind. Keep yourself in a good environment.
The mentality of which you are thinking is severely unhealthy. Thinking of people as normies and toddlers (of which they may be) but there are 7 billion people on this earth and not a single one of us is unique.
I personally struggle with a lack of creativity so I take commissions and I love what I do. If you do not, it is not for you.
Balance with a sprinkle of a healthy congruent lifestyle will do you a world of good.
I hope this helped and I’d be more than happy to discuss this more in DMs as I am well practiced in what I preach.

Dude trust me, you’re super young. You have a ton of time left to do things like make games. Just start with smaller projects and release them so you can get a sense of how to market and complete a game. Almost no one does something great overnight, and if you think that you’re the exception you’re probably wrong. You need to take it easy and don’t be so hard on yourself. I was once like that and trust me, it’s not worth it. Everyone procrastinates, but stressing over it without actually addressing the problem just makes it worse. Good luck man.
Personally i went through the same thing, at the beginning of the year i felt great, i thought i was going to make a great game. I worked too hard, i spent ages awake thinking about the game. I eventually gave up on the game and spent day after day sat there, bored, not doing anything, but I couldn’t go outside, nope i had to stay indoors. But then i bought myself a skateboard and spent some time per day learning, i wasn’t perfect, but nobody just starts out at anything perfect. I was actually enjoying myself doing something i loved. I also of course love making games, but i just needed a good break and so i had one, i took my mind off of programming day after day and i felt much better, i could then finally get back to something else i loved, programming.
