Thanks a lot for the kind words! I am enjoying making this a lot, I've had other smaller game projects before (RPG Maker stuff) when I was a kid, always loved RPGs, but I've never clinged so hard to one and for so long. If you noticed, it means I'm in the right track, I don't plan on stopping anytime soon and would like to see my project finished. About the backlogs (had to look this word up), yeah, I get mood swifts often when I'm doing something that's boring so I add um, features and other stuff on top to distract myself and to make the process not so boring. Writing is my weakness.
I do like thinking about the story and note down ideas but for example I made a sports scene in the game that was taking so long to finish, and sports is not really my interest so I had to start thinking again of a way to make it different so I'd enjoy it. It's no longer your regular sports scene. It takes more time when you add things on top, yup, but I know when not to add too much.
There's nothing else for the battle mode to be done for example, I thought of ideas like combo stuff and some complex negative status that I won't implement for the sake of taking too much time for something that was supposed to be simple.
