Game Development for Dummies | The Ultimate Guide

I wanted to learn Unity, but I'm scared of wasting my time and getting screwed over if I managed to create something good one day :/

Maybe I'll start with Godot and move onto Unreal when I'm a bit experienced ?

Unity... Hmmmm

Thank you, not making a game from scratch is definitely good advice

Well u can knock unity off that engine list now. Sad

nobody should listen to this guy

This was fantastic.

that was full of information

"Unity is pretty awesome" oh boy that didnt age well

Unity 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I understood " my dad variable is false " xD

What annoys me so much about watching videos and many tutorials is that there are people starting at ground 0 who can't even wrap their heads around the most basic concepts of these tools. Its great that you can take those objects and make this children to a parent object, but where did that floor come from? How did you make the trees? Did you import them? make them in the engine? do you MAKE the floor or does a script generate it? is there a tool in the engine that generates a floor? So many videos are always one step ahead in familiarity to far for absolute beginners to follow.

This demystified a lot. Thank you!

This was very helpful. Ive been wanting this to be my career path and getting a better understanding before looking for a college is great.

I'm a big big dummy

Lol I'm in 3rd grade

Im a senior in my school and i have programming/coding class but i thought to myself that even though it's not a video game coding class but it's still coding idk. Does this count as experience/practice because i doubt myself and anxious as well forgetting what i learn because i have others things in my head

Unreal is easier than Unity actually

I mean just look at my name, lmao. But i want to try to cook

Go . 💀

🎵🎶Attach that script to that ASSet... Attach that script to tath ASSet yo! 🎵🎶🎵🎶

"all games should not be made from sratch"
....mmmmmm... naw 🙃

Ive been an ecommerce developer but i still remember how excited i was when making an android game way back college. I want to be a game dev now

I almost shut off the video when I heard how you pronounce Godot

This was a much needed piece of information. Thanks. It is nice to be told 50% asset 50% script (tell asset what to do). It is even better that someone actually had the time to tell us newbies what an asset is. I really needed these 3 information to fill in my understanding of what is going on, in this new hobby of mine :)

Honestly I'm just here because I want a bigger idea

So I have to ask because everyone keeps saying this…do you really need to start with something like JavaScript or can you get by with only knowing C languages as a game dev? I started with C in my CS50 class and actually really enjoy C++ from what I’ve learned so far, but everyone do anything coding keeps saying to start with a higher level language. Is there any use for it further down the road? (I know it’s always great to have more skills in your toolbox, but just curious!) Thank you for the great video! ☺️

Thanks Thomas. That was very simply explained.

Simple version: use already created assets

btw where to find a 3d graphic ready for creating the assets for us and be paid for that?

GO DOT

My guy, you have convinced me to give unity a try, I struggled with unreal engine for a while, havent learned anything from it, and its just too complicated too me for now and I dont need the crazy high graphics or anything just yet if im a beginner, Unity should be easier for me to get into and I can get used to the basics of stuff and make my dream 2d game before attempting my dream 3d games

I like to play video games to get an idea or genre or overall style to make games.

can someone name all the games shown plz?

The dad variable set to false was just peak😂

This video was amazing! Everything was so really clearly explained

I want to make a 3d linear level based 3rd person action game. I'm not sure if I should use Unity or Unreal. I'm not planning on crazy gaphics. Like I'm not looking to have my characters look like real people.

Do you have any tips for learning C#?

So , im dummy 😂

c#, java, javascript which one is the best for game development? and which language that i want to learn first before jumping into your course?

Thank you so much for inspiring me through my hard journey of becoming a game dev! Wish you best luck and success!!

Thank god I have 10 years of experience with 3ds max, and now i just need to learn unity =D

Wow this is hard

Hey Thomas! Love your videos. Just wanted to let you know that the community-accepted pronunciation of Godot is "guh-dough" (emphasis on the 2nd syllable)

i always love to call you the indie games philosopher , i love the content you share it absolutely enlighten my mind and opens it to understand

Fantastic video. I love playing games. Now, I have a simple yet solid understanding of how they're made. The next step in learning how to make games is much clearer to me now. Thanks.

I've been a full time software engineer for over a decade but have never built a game. My husband and I are now starting to spin up our understanding of project work to build our first mobile app. Thank you for this content.

Would you have the applications open at the same time, though? Or would you open Blender, create your asset, then close Blender, open Unity, and import your asset there? It would save on RAM. 😁
