Agent89:

I feel that it would be beneficial for me motivation wise to have an actual name.

Call it "Pickles". That way you know the name is only temporary, because you would never actually release a game named "Pickles" (or would you?), and you'll change it later.

Meanwhile, you'll have moved beyond the stress of naming your game and you can work on actually building it. You know, like everyone else said.

But if I happen to see a game named "Pickles" show up on CG, that will be funny. ;)

LOL!!! thanks.  I went ahead with Galaxy Fighters.  But i kind of like the name pickles.  Maybe I'll upload alpha/beta of it as Codename: Pickles.
