well I am trying to do several projects at one time, I guess I have a short attention span, sorry.

I'm not judging you, but from experience I can tell you that you are much better off focusing on a single project at a time. By making sure the project is small enough in scope for your capabilities you also can help that short attention span because smaller stuff gets done faster than bigger stuff.

Is there any reason why all your projects seem to want to be created in “old-school” ways, without taking advantage of modern game engines? There are so many good options, and no need to do everything in raw C++ anymore.
