Not sure if this goes here or not? but ive dabbled a little here and there with different things but i lack like every skill to make a game. Im wondering what aspect or skill is worth getting better at, for gamedev?
I cant code, i cant draw/3d art, i cant make music, im bad with ideas, etc.
Where do i even begin or what would you advise?
They are both one click installs basically. In any case, that would only leave Godot which has a lot less tutorials. I’d love to know the percentage of games that do not use either of these three. He wants to learn how to make games, what would you tell him to do? I literally started on unity and didnt know any of it, I learned to code with it lol.
Have you actually tried using them? Installing the right version for whatever other libraries you’re using is everything but easy.
Installing is the easiest part anyway.
I told him to first make a card or boardgame from paper.
I learned to code from nothing with it so obviously I more than tried them. It’s not difficult enough to warrant your comment. He wants to learn clearly.
This is a programming sub and you told him to make a boardgame.
It’s great that you’ve had success.
They want to make games. I told him a way to learn about game design without using a computer.
Programming is just one tool and I would say not the most important one to make a good game.
Learning to code is difficult.
