Gaming dev resources for a noob

[Rawns]

I think we need an Edugeek Game devs group.

 

Or just do it through steam.

 

Though, I'd say Edugeek. Steam is blocked at work and I can probably pass this off as CPD.

 

A group would be better and make sharing resources/findings/code samples easier:

 

Declare char(1000)
{
rubbish.code
}
goto FAIL

 

 

Plus I can't load Terraria on Edugeek!

I still think at some point, steam on Android will allow the purchasing of Android titles. But that's another discussion...

Good job I have nothing in my steam wallet.

 

First order of business. Which language?

 

I say python as it's going to be easier to get into the fundamentals.

I need a refresh of my skills.

 

Downside of not having anything to program is the skills get rusty. But plus side is even doing a course a long time ago, it makes picking up the concepts and syntax again much quicker.

Good luck!

 

I've tried to learn programming but I found it very hard, like others have said start with something amazingly simple first.
