So ive been thinking about using godot or gdevelp but im not too sure if those are teh right ones for a beginner to use. im not sure why but i want to make a video game, i dont even have an ideas but i want to make one for some reason. once i get a better computer which will be in a few days hopefully i think i might use unity, maybe.

i could use suggestions, advice, tips, you can even share a story if you want to. ive made a few posts before and everyone says to download blender to make things with and then use godot becasue its open source and low end.

    Go ahead and get started with Godot. Stop researching and asking questions about how to start. Don’t delay. There are a lot of beginner Godot resources, pick one and get started.

      I second that. You can also go a fair way without coding much. So you can learn the engine as you learn programming.

      Also, look at some example projects. There are plenty, like a vampire survivor like. Try to understand the structure and add some very small feature.

      There are also many resources online to get started. Don’t hesitate to create many small projects where you only try out a concept or idea. Godot is very composable once you know your way around, this will make things easier to move your learnings from one project to the next.
