Intro
Hi guys I’m 17 from the uk and completely new to game dev. I’ve started producing some music and I’ve always wanted to get into making games so I want to start learning now. Can anyone recommend helpful youtube channels, tips or anything else?

Welcome to the group Louis! I'm making a course for this group and it will be available sometime next week. In the meantime Brackeys and Game Maker's toolkit are classics. Fundamentally it's more about getting started and putting in the work that finding the perfect guide.
Nice to meet you all!
I'm 2d artist interested in game dev industry as well as making my own projects. I love medieval and fantasy genre and games like "Kingdom Come", "Baldur`s Gate", "Pentiment". I will be trying my hand in isometric illustrations soon, might share my experience here :) Here is my portfolio: https://elena-turtiainen.com

Welcome Elena! I really liked some of the ideas in the abstract paintings page, I enjoyed the stories they were telling ☺️
Yesterdays Game Dev Hangout call was cool! πŸ˜ŽπŸ’―
It was super dope to meet both @Adekunle John & @Antti Miettinen and get to learn a little bit more about the dev process LIVE. Looking forward to more hangouts and hoping to see and meet more peeps on the call! 😁πŸ”₯

Yeah, It was super nice meeting you Miles! I've got big things planned so more to come for sure!
Are Assets cheating?
Would you use an asset that fits your purpose perfectly (like an a* pathfinding ai) but you have no clue how it works. Would you use it?

Nah, use whatever works and helps you get to your goal. The biggest problem is that you may not be able to fix issues with the asset on your own or customize the behavior enough to your needs.

It also sometimes pays off to learn to make it yourself. A* can be intimidating in the beginning, but once you understand it, it's easier to implement it into any project yourself.
Update: Game Jams Coming
Today I thought to me: Why donβ€˜t we have game jams? I found nothing against it, so send in field suggestions! Further Updates Coming! (This will be the first time I host one, I might do stupid beginner mistakes.)

Nice! I think once we have a course in this community, people will have an easier time learning the basics and then we will have more people to attend game jams ☺️. I personally have way too much to do to attend them at the moment πŸ₯²
