Can you tell me what are the things I need to learn to get started in making games solo

what's the song playing in the background?

​@@Maou-Sama_CastleI recently started making games so I don't know much but from my failures I can say this. Pick an engine: find out what language that engine uses and get a basis in that language, it helps a lot. I used unity for a while and struggled because I barely knew c#, I recently switched to Godot as gdscript is very similar to python and it is a lot easier for me as I already had a decently good knowledge of python. Learn the engine: all game engines are built with tools to help, learn to use them well and you'll have an advantage in your workflow. Start small: as the video suggests, start small and build up. The game I tried making first was a survival game that I was hoping to add multiplayer mechanics to, it ended up just being a running simulator as a horde of capsules chased me and it never got multiplayer. Don't start with multiplayer: just don't

No

I'm almost 40.. I don't have time for all this " coding os so philosophical " bs before I'm too old. I need to make an app like Steam 3 years ago but just started. How do ingetbthis done in 6 months?

hmm so would you recommend using ai to help you rather than just doing the code for you?

@@berryronin6882 at ai's current stage, yes. Have it explain topics, suggest changes and use of certain functions / features / sdks / encryption methods etc while you do the actual logic. This does damage your problem solving skills which dynamic programming requires.

The only way to code will be AI code soon enough

@@MyWatermelonz people gonna get more lazy day by day cuz of Ai

I have liked the textbook approach too, but it is odd because in my experience at the community/junior college level CS classes, professors have eschewed textbooks for learning. They may recommend them on the syllabus but they don’t actually follow it all that much except for getting ideas about assignments.

The same for me, when you read you take your own pace for understand the concept. The same thing you can't for UKposts, cause sometimes, the person talk fast or slow, and make the concept boring or difficult. Sometimes the teacher on UKposts miss some details about the concept, and make everything harder than should be.

​@JoshSimpler so when reading a textbook YOU teach yourself, not someone ELSE teaching you, neat.

And manuals! If you're into Linux, for example, read the GNU utility docs, manpages, etc. There's no replacement

I’ve realized that too. I used to watch video tutorials, but reading things is SO much faster and efficient. Also, with my classes we would learn and then have a project set for our skill level. When I tried teaching myself with random videos, I was just copying down the code they would write, not actually applying a bunch of snippets to form my own project (like what I would do in classes).

Hey man, how is the coding goin

@@mincoarmin1260 actually not that great, but it gave me insights about how to learn anything! Kept coding aside, but in my free time im getting there

HAHAHAHAHAH

Hello sir should I ask a favour sir??

**FASTEST WAY TO LEARN TO CODE** im learning to code rn. i learned javascript via an online one-one course. it was rly good. but i didnt code for a while after and forgot it. since then, ive tried many times to learn to code. i did a coursera course to learn python, it was rly good, but quite expensive. then i tried free online courses, again, rly good, but too guided, i dont remember anything bc all i was doing was typing what they told me to. then i watched those 'learn python in one hour' youtube videos. also good, but i was zoned out most of the time and all of these were making me learn coding so slowly(other than the online javascript course which was rly rly good). ... **STEP BY STEP (atleast whats working for me) 1. do a beginner coursera course, do one of those free online courses, or watch a 'learn python in 1 hour' videos. - this is just so you figure out the basics and what they do (like functions, classes, print, if loops, etc.) 2. do projects. no more courses once you've gotten the basic controls down. do projects! - first i searched 'beginner python projects' on yt and followed along! yes, follow along, so ur actually coding, dont just watch. 3. then after i followed along with 2 beginner yt projects. i thought up/searched up beginner project ideas and did some myself 4. then level up, follow along with some intermediate yt projects, then do some intermediate projects by urself. so on so forth... 4. i am still in phase 3 lol but i can tell its working a lot better than any courses because its hands on, im learning problem solving when i run into an error, and im thinking it through. plus its fun bc im actually creating smth and not just mindlessly following a course. but diff things work for different people! ... -keep in mind that i did learn javascript alr and i was pretty good (intermediate I would say) so that probably helped me learn python, even though i havnt done javascript in 3 years.

it's an ad video...

Do you have any advice for how to get a job like that? Or explain how you got that job without knowledge on tech stack? 😅

@@nicholaspark4166 first requirement is that there’s no code interviews. A lot of enterprise companies don’t test your knowledge or will have someone with no knowledge themselves test you. be confident, talk your way through it. Basically BS your way through with the knowledge that you’re a good enough programmer where learning a new language or framework isn’t that big of a deal.what matters is how you perform on the job itself.

@@JC-jz6rx Thank you for replying!! So I would want to just be confident in my skills and ability to learn so that my confidence would lead to their confidence in me. I appreciate the advice!!

LIES!!!

Its either connections either cap

Wow that's impressive

🤓☝️

Good job. You remind me of myself when I was coding pygame chess games when I was 10. Good luck in your journey!

Hi dude, I want to be the same as you. Can we add each other on social media and maybe you can help me get my skills up again? Also, you are seriously impressive. At your age I was into Photoshop graphic designing but now I'm 20 and want to do coding stuff, lol.

HI Im 14 years girl trying to be in this coding world would u like to give some tips

Hello, I work in the same industry as you, however I am a IT support specialist, but I have trouble finding work here in Canada, I currently have my Comptia a plus core 1 done and I currently am studying for my core 2, what should I do to be picked up by employers? Thank you

@@nunobarcelos5809 Apply to jobs

That's right. Also, learning how to learn is learning how to be patient. I lost count on how many times I've rushed over stuff and beat myself up at the end. Be patient, guys :3

Neither I 😂

My classmates said exactly the same thing lol 🤣

😂😂😂

Uss homie😂

So how is CS50P Python going for you. I just started cs50x to get into programming and understanding all the basics first. I eventually want to go inot robotics so i aim to learn pyton after this. Will cs50P Python be good for this ?

How did you learn how to code? I'm tired of watching youtube videos and need another approach...

@@Steven-ke2ss The over 24 likes show that I am not alone. I'm glad, as I thought I was alone with this theory. Sometimes in life, for things you are interested in and have no one to discuss or exchange information with, you simply create your own simulation. I mean, pretend as if you were working in a company where UKposts videos are not allowed. The simple simulation you can do is to say to yourself, "Hey, why don't I pretend my parents are my clients?" Depending on what would make your parents' lives easier or your siblings', you then try to develop some kind of software. It doesn't have to be professional; it's just about setting yourself a goal. For example, make a to-do list or a shopping list and don't connect to the internet. It's also about learning and thinking during the process. And if you need help, use the documentation and not UKposts. UKposts simply does what you don't do yourself, leading to you watching videos and wasting time

​@@Steven-ke2ss CS50 and CS50 python

@@raptorzz8571 Nooooo.

⁠​⁠@@iekie4180I’m currently in the middle of building a very simple To-Do list and I’m struggling on doing a very simple thing at the moment. It involves user input and I personally feel embarrassed that I can’t finish this simple project so I can advance to something else, like a battleships game. Obviously I won’t give up because I aspire to be a software developer/engineer one day. So my question is this: if I struggle understanding something from the documentations of C++, is using UKposts a bad thing?

Good luck!

yeah its like the nodes in unreal engine. learning what all the nodes do in blueprints and how they connect to each other is the most important part of unreal. all the other stuff is basically just cosmetics.

@@unrealstudent2239 In some way. The nodes in unreal are a bit different of a concept. They would be like functions of a library. Important to know to some extend but I mean a bit more fundamental stuff and concepts. You can build with multiple nodes something that represents a programming concept. And the nodes itself use different fundamental elements and components with specific meanings. You don't necessarily need to know the functions itself if you know the concept you want to create and nodes can be pretty easy to understand and to explain if you know the fundamentals. In my experience I found nodes very verbose and a bit awkward to use. I mean basically a node is just one line of code and to write a function in nodes you need a lot of time. Nodes a pretty need for programming beginners and designers to create prototypes but anything more advanced seems time consuming.

This is so real, I'm a first year CS student and having never done CS before uni EVERYONE around me somehow knows how to code and it makes me feel demotivated but at the same time this video has opened my eyes.

hey aashish are you from some iit or nit? cuz your comment sounded so relatable along with that indian name!

40 dollars from my credit card 💀

yess!

I always dreamt about creating professional software like AutoCAD, Word, etc.

As much as I love Golang I don't think anyone one should start out with it. There aren't many Junior Developer jobs for Go, and there aren't many resources available if you need help.

Rust

It's AI art

Link to resource page?

Oh can I please get the link when it’s ready!

Adding my name to the list of people who’d like a link when the page is up

I didn’t want to but I might just take the same approach as you if I don’t make it just know your single comment may have just ruined my entire year.

What is dart?

Dart is a programming language@@e.t.566

​@@Rico.308good luck

​@@e.t.566 It's an OOP language developed by google. It's mainly used along side the Flutter framework to build out web and mobile apps.

I'm a freshman college student and I feel the same way as you. I like to draw but I don't excel at it and I see my classmates adapting so easily, I was a HUMSS student at highschool so I'm really exploring an unknown field unlike my peers who already had a background in coding. I hope you continue your journey, I know we'll make it. Good luck to you!

Same feeling brother,I don't know what I do, what I prefer,what makes me happier,anyway I have no path to neglect programming.keep trying

Did ya finally get a job? If so, then where?

@@GutziGuy I did, at a boring bank. But still pays well for my country

bro i wish i started when i was 16

I am 16 bru 😭 this is my start

Start,don't wait 5-10years. Goes by in weeks.

im 14 now started at 12 but i gave up trying to start up again

@@sani-RZ if you can get a tutor or in school class take it or setup 1 month trial run by yourself at home,write down progress on 1st day compared to last day, don't make the goal to be a complete programmer in 30 days,just an update to see your progress and if it's for you or not. Look at it as if you started taking up drawing art , from drawing circle smiley faces, to proportions and shadows,need to pickup some job-related CPU skill,trade or regular job at 16,save money for cash car,then SAVE MONEY to keep for emergencies or tools to help later in life,when you become an adult,it can cost $100+ dollars EVERDAY just by leaving your place.
