Any game developers out there with some tips for game development? Starting a school project and have decided to do a video game :)

Would be glad to hear your advice and I'm sure there are others out there who would too!

I have done some game development in the past.
Watch a lot of videos from GDC for example. You can learn *a lot* about game development and game design and programming and what not just by listening to experienced people.

It's also really interesting in my opinion.
Just watch whatever interests you!

JavaScript!

@JonnyCodewalker I started with that when I first started :) I've learned enough now to use Unity/UE4 well enough to make small games (big enough for my A level project). I just struggle with the whole art/animation side xD

@Froot I don't know it that well though! I'm more comfortable with C#/C++ xD

@MatanRad I LOVE watching them GDC presentations! They're really good + very interesting. I'm not really sure that there is any particular side to game development that I'm interested in though. I like doing it all :/ I can't see myself only doing one particular part like physics or graphics etc.

You may wanna check unity or unreal but they require time to master or even start to understand what is happening as beginner or just small project you may wanna check GDevelop or Click Team fusion 2.5

Watch Gamkedo on YouTube. Good channel that, these days at least, has more lifestyle/philosophy of a game dev videos. You can learn a lot from it.

@Wytchley I actually think just like you, but it all depends on the scale of your project.

Just saying, you better post your game here too when it's done :P

@MatanRad hopefully going to put it on itch.io :) Will definitely upload a link/key to it here :) !!

@Wytchley subscribed to your rants then :P
