A little bit off topic: do you know any good resources to get started with Godot?

rmvt 6y ago
there's quite a few tutorials on youtube. i just picked up godot and i'm following one by angega studios. it's really well made, albeit a bit outdated now, but the impact of that is minimal. http://kidscancode.org/blog/ http://kidscancode.org/blog/ seems to be a good resource as well.

I recommend reading the entire Step by Step section of the Godot documentation [1] Then you'll have a great basis to start soaking in GDQuest's youtube channel. GDQuest on youtube is THE place to go to for Godot video tutorials.

One important thing I had to do to learn Godot. I started with the tutorials, but I had to re-create one of their demo games from scratch before it really clicked. Now I'm very fluent in it, and it's been a JOY. I've been building a game in it for the last month or so and progress so far is very satisfying.

In addition to what the others have said, come join us on the discord! People are frequently in voice calls and live streams, there are dedicated channels for various issues with quick response times, and many of the authors of the resources mentioned here are present there as well.

Outside of the official documentation, there are some text tutorials here: https://godottutorials.pro/ https://godottutorials.pro/ I'm also a fan of HeartBeast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrHQNOyU1q6BFEfkNq2CYMA https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrHQNOyU1q6BFEfkNq2CYMA

I have started by following "Discovering Godot"[1] video course on Udemy, I still think this is the best place to start. After that I have watched "Top-down Tank Battle"[2], and I highly recommend it, absolutely brilliant series of tutorials(all of the tutorials on this channel are great). Really helped me to understand all the concepts much better. For intermediate/advanced tutorials, watch GDQuest. They have a youtube channel[3] and excellent video courses[4]. They are planning to release courses on procedural generation and multiplayer too, I'm really looking forward to watching those. Finally, a shameless plug - I'm making some tutorials on Godot(alongside with some general Digital Art and Houdini videos). I'm still just getting started, but people seem to like them. The most popular one I've made so far is "Creating Platformer Character Movement in Godot - Wall Jumping/Sliding, Double Jumping, Dashing"[5].
