It's sad to hear that you won't be making the game, but it's completely understandable, one has to focus on family.
this doesn't mean your career has to be boring, the job is boring if we make it boring.
I would respectfully suggest, from my ignorant and disconected viewpoint, that I sincerely hope that you at least consider making indie games from time to time.
perhaps making games is therapeutic, I do not know this, but it's a hunch.
I sincerely hope none of my remarks are considered insensitive, please keep in mind we belong in different cultural backgrounds.
