@QuietStorm For any/all software applications, Godot included, you should always use the latest STABLE version unless you know for a FACT that you need a prior one.
Make sure any tutorials you follow are for the version you are using.
GameDev is a creative endeavor. Like painting, or playing an instrument. As with all creative endeavors, you will find success if you apply yourself to small achievable goals over time. You wouldn't try to compose a symphony the 1st day you touch a piano, right?
@Ategon Don't obsess about perfect code, perfect graphics, perfect sound, perfect mechanics, or perfect anything.
Obsess about small attainable goals or projects (Like @DuckRaGod said)
Why? The sooner you finish projects the sooner you can use the gained experience to do it again, only this time you will do it better.
@DuckRaGod I love it when people say something is impossible, only to later witness a group of weirdos do the very thing.
Count me in the willing to help column (even though I know next to nothing about GameDev). 😅
@influence1123 @QuietStorm If they don't mind reading: The Godot engine website has VERY GOOD tutorials for a starter 2D game and a simple 3D game in the Documentation section.
