New to JavaScript C# programming

Hi, I’m new to javascript and C#, but I can’t find the right tutorials online that fit my needs for making my first game. Heres what my requirements for scripting a game.

#1 scripting a main menu
#2 score board
#3 basic physics for objects(falling, breaking)
#4 controller object (rotating, aiming, firing) not moving W,A,S,D
#5 if simple, cannon moving up and down for height

Plus if I program with C# would that work regardless on other platforms? Also I’m using unity on a WinXP machine.

Thanks.

#1 Read about GUIs
#2 Read about GUIs
#3 Read about RigidBodies
#4 Read about Input
#5 Read about Input(I’m guess as to what you mean here)

There are not tutorials for everything, you’re going to have to buckle down and learn those components and get good with C#. None of it is particularly difficult if you’re willing to put in the effort.

hey… i just found out this cool site you might want to try… http://www.walkerboystudio.com/html/tutorials.html

also, youtube is your friend :slight_smile:

Last time I went to youtube, I came up short of programming videos. Know of any good tutorials on that site?

Petey aka BurgZergArcade has a lot of them, and they are really good → http://www.youtube.com/user/BurgZergArcade#g/u

He covers hack and slash rpgs, not cannon shooting games.

Expecting to find a tutorial that will step you through the exact kind of game you’d like to write (“cannon shooting game”) is overly optimistic. You need to learn from the tutorials that are available, adapt what you’ve learned to your specific needs, and ask questions when/as necessary. Writing a complete game is not a trivial task. You should expect some trial and error, some head scratching, and any number of failed experiments along the way. That’s all part of the experience.
