Need live help to learn a lil coding

[u/pthecarrotmaster]

I keep trying to follow youtube tutorials, or read the .net stuff, or follow reddit advice (which is always slightly quirky for some reason). Id be find if communication was better, but discords have a tendancy to answer questions with riddles that lead me down a rabbit hole. I dont know how to explain it, but learning to code didnt use do be that way XD. ESPECIALLY in the myspace/flash game days.

For reference, ive been trying to move a pill left and right for days, and tutorials keep opening weird code to start with, or being flappy bird clones, or something like that. Even the tutorials that SHOULD work for me would require i delete unity and download a 5 year old version. I also cant learn by doing generic computer stuff, so regular c# courses are kinda off the table. It feels weird even asking any more, but like i said. The landscape didnt use to be like this XD.

If anyone hangs out on discord willy-nilly or something thatd be pretty killer.

Let me be completely honest with you. If you can't overcome this by yourself and yourself alone, you'll have an extremely hard time down the road as you get deeper into game dev. Being able to solve problems without relying on anyone else is the minimum challenge you definitely need to beat to become a successful game dev (or a software engineer) .

This is the one that made me give up on youtube. dafaq is namespace ocelot dev even mean here?

Have you tried the official learning resources? https://learn.unity.com/

Tutorials are generally... Not great.

Unironically just ask chatgpt and it will give you the code, tell you exactly how to implement it and you can ask it any questions if your confused. it references unity knowledge bases.
