Stop waiting for Godot!: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28352397
So, basically: I thought next weekend might be a good time to finally sit down and try to learn Godot. Why don't you join me?
I'm new to Godot, so I asked people for recommendations for good resources for learning the engine. Here were the most common ones: A lot of people strongly recommended the GDQuest website and youtube channel, which seem great - they're very extensive and detailed, and the youtube channel features a "get started with godot in 2021" series, which seems like a really great place to start. An alternative video series that a number of people recommended is BornCG's "Let's Build a 2D platformer" series, which seems really nicely made and clear! If, like me, you prefer written tutorials over videos, Kids Can Code.org has a Godot 101 tutorial, and a "recipes" guide filled with how-to guides on specific Godot problems.
It seems like the official documentation is a really great place to look too - it's kept up to date by open source contributors. I had one very strong recommendation the "Your First Game" tutorial.
Can't wait for the jam to start! See you this weekend!
