GameDevinI want to participate in the #GMTK #GameJam , but I have never made a video game before, at all, ever. I figured now would be as good a time as any to start. What are some tips for absolute beginners? I already have some programming experience in python so I'm thinking picking up Godot would be good, but like. What else? Is there like. A #GodotEngine tutorial that people recommend, and is short enough to get through before the gmtk jam ends?
Like, where do I even get assets? Preferably free assets (at least, free for non-commercial use). Oh geez am I really doing this? I think I might try actually doing this oh boy I am excited and nervous
Adam - The Funny BrainGood luck! :) I should think Godot is a nice launch point - I use unity, but if I was starting in 2023, would definitely consider Godot as it looks ace :)
There's @kenney for assets! https://www.kenney.nl/ I love his work so much I bought packs and tools, but the free assets are brilliant :) There's also, itch.io etc for assets that might be worth a look :)
I hope it goes really well, and most importantly you have a lot of fun! :) I miss gamejams!
