Im new to the forums and i’m LOVIN it! Btw, get ready for a reallllllllly long post but i honestly need all the help i can get
Ok let’s get right to it, im making a game because well…i’ve played too much and now im interested to see how everything works! SO, Unity…my first stop on this hectic joyride and learning curve couldn;t have been easier i’ve acutally tried unity earlier on but i never really got to making an actual project but now, with cross-platform and iOS support im all in (also if i may say this, some nice cash can be earned here )
Basically, my theme is a third person shooter/action game where you go through missions and fight hordes of enemies (kinda like saints row third :P)
My first inspiration was from a game called ‘Minigore,’ on the iPhone, and i really wanted to make something like that.
If you’re willing to help me in anyway,shape or form please do! link me to some helpful stuff. Im new but i know some basics… what will help me exceed and accelerate in terms of learning resources in the direction i want to go? i’m creating this firstly for PC but then i may add some other features to it later on when i got the money to buy pro and make it available on the AppStore
if its that good i might even pt it on other consoles, just let me get my head focused on this and help me get equipped with the necessary knowledge and tools. i got big dreams, a fast learning brain, and a determined personality…
SO LETS freakin DO THIS!..right? (obviously i don’t mean to use a taboo word its just there for effect LOL)
Ahem…Waht? Sir, just let me say that i’m not trolling i’m asking for help and if you’re so hard-brained as to not understand that i was trying to ease the subject and get myself a place in the community well then you are the troll. if you intent on posting more unhelpful messages please do them someplace else…
As to you sir well i’m greatly appreciated to your kindness and the website has a ton of great content. So thank you
I shall be working off of this and if i encounter any problem i’ll be sure to track you down and contact you. thanx again mate
Just a note for all the other people out there reading my thread, i KNOW that there’s tons and tons of content out there that can help me learn, i fully understand that but the thing is there’s so much information that i don’t know in which order they come in. i was looking for a website like the one provided above by TehWut that explains everything thoroughly and in the order they should be learnt. Thank you for putting up with my desperate call, and i hope you keep supplying me with all the other information i might need
Lastly, if someone can be so kind as to tell me, where did my thread actually get moved to?! i dont know my way around the forums yet
He gave you good advice. The problem is, you asked a question that could have been answered by a Google search, and he wasn’t sure you weren’t just trolling us. In fact, with your response, I’m still not sure. You come in here ask for the most basic help to make a really complicated game, and you obviously haven’t tried to help yourself first.
Game development is a lot of work, even if you’re a pro. Part of that is learning to answer questions yourself, instead of relying on others for everything.
So take the advice given: Make Pong, and read that link.
If you can’t make Pong, then you should seriously reconsider your goals, because the game you’ve outlined would be absolutely impossible for someone who can’t make Pong.
You got moved into Gossip, btw, because it doesn’t fit anywhere else.
the advice given above was indeed good. make this simplest game possible first, prior to making “the next big thing”- you’ll be surprised how much it will answer for you.
