A large part of what's holding me back - and I'm sure many others can relate - is motivation, and lack of ideas. First of all, I generally go through a cycle:

  • Come up with an idea and develop it - This is the fun part
  • Continue development as I lose motivation - This is the tedious part
  • Either quit/postpone the whole project or go back to step one, because I have a new idea!
Secondly, lack of good ideas in the first place is a massive roadblock. Sure, this is fine if you're making a clone or a remake or something similar, but many of us strive to come up with something original.

Working in a team helps.

Or, alternatively, you can use this:
string(class) + "_walk_" + string(direction)
