    I only work on one project at a time. However, before I really start "Working" on that project, I might "start" another project. :P Those projects will be completed, but not while I'm really "working" on a project.

    @Braydon_SFX Me too, I usually start 2 or 3 projects. Work on them equally till one becomes more fun. Then I'll focus on that one till it's done and once it is, I'll go and work on another.

    You forgot to add the "Too many" option in the list :)

    I have at least 10 projects that I started that are waiting for further inspiration or some GS features. Then I have 2 side project and 2 main ones (one is mine and one is for a client) that are actively in working mode. It really takes its toll on mental sanity 8-}

    I work only on one project at time, it's quicker, and more effective, in my opinion.

    In my opinion, good results need focus and love :)

    Bad habit of starting one and then another idea hits. Hardest part about any developing is finishing a project.

    I tend to work on about 3. Having tried seeing a project through from start to finish, the last 10% is the hardest. Enthusiasm wains and theres a tendency imo to rush! I find by working on a couple of projects, as I start to tire of 1 project, if i work on another it gives me that new game buzz again, as there wares off i go to another or back to my original and it all feels fresh again. It also breaks me from tunnel vision, it allows me to think of new ideas and see flaws I previously couldn't see.

    I usually have a main project and a side project. When I'm "in the zone", I will only focus on one of them.
