Heh. s/ Ruby// in your sentence, and you are me. For a few dozen games I've began since I touched a computer, I believe there's only one that could be considered finished. (I was twelve, I had time !

(It will be a multi-player espionnage game, where the player has the role of the head of the black-ops section of the local spy organization. The main focus will revolve around the hiring, training and management of the operatives...)
