My plain advice to you is this, when I started programming there wasn't very much to go on other than some dusty forums and some thick language books. Nowadays you can just pop on google or youtube and learn just about anything. So I would recommend just going there and searching something like simple unity game tutorial etc and blindly following it, press this button here, type these commands there to get a feel for it for one. After that if you're comfortable, look for something more advanced along the same lines and repeat. Some stuff will come with intuition naturally and you will pick up on certain things and know what to search for for help etc. The rest you will have to sit and learn like getting a piece of paper and doing some vector math or learning what arrays are. So don't lock yourself away for weeks learning a language, jump in headfirst and see where it takes you, mix and match, the rest will come with persistence and time.

A simple way to put the difference between C# and C++ is that you can think of C++ as a random assortment of powerful machine parts. Where C# is a already build machine with a purpose.

For example, Unity was made with C++ but the people who use the engine actually use C#.

Hey everybody. Thanks for all of the great feed back. This morning I took a big step back and thought about what everyone said. I did a few Google searches and looked at unity 2018. I believe I will be learning c# what I was after was astetic and beauty in my game. I find that for this project unity will do more than that. Although I will lose some things I think for my game unity will work fine.

I don't think anyone has the time to mentor someone for free.

However I have no doubt that if you post questions on this website about programming and game development you will get tons of help that way. Just remember it can take some time, but beginner questions get answered quickly.

When asking a question you think is obvious to others just remind everyone that you are a beginner; that way people will be friendlier.

 

C# these are good tutorials: https://www.tutorialspoint.com/gamb

It has a good overview but it really starts teaching at "Data Types".

good answer!

I knew nothing 30 days ago.

I downloaded Unity 3D for free and went to Udemy.com and bought a few courses for $9.99 each (check out the beginner courses by gamedev.tv).

I cannot tell you how much I’ve already learned in 30 days.

You can do it bro.
