Where to start absolutely no experience on HP Victus

Where do I start? Im beginning my journey to be a game developer, and I am working on my HP Victus and I have my AT&T Verge 2 to test or maybe modify on the go. I just don’t know where to start. I dont have any experience but lots of ideas.

I wanna make a game thats an action - rpg game with pet simulation similar to the sonic Adventure series chao gardens.

Id like to learn GDScript and learn how to make a 2D game and eventually a 3D game.

Welcome to Godot Community :slight_smile:

as for HP Victus, i am not sure what you mean？Ill need a bit more context to know but i think its a labtop maybe?

As for GDScript, i recommend a course such as ones on Udemy if you have that, Lipai Wang has a good course, but its updates are wonky—Or Youtube which is more likely you will have access to, either is perfect for GDscript learning though.

I find it best to know about programming in general first, and if you know C#, then you can use the dotnet version of Godot.
I would start out with Python, as GDScript is basically Python + C#/JS.

I actually started programming as a web developer and transitioned to gamedev about 5-6 months ago now, stick with Godot and i know you will love it. Now’s yer start, but to start you must know the basics.

I found Godot’s node interface quite intuitive at first, but control nodes, signals, etc. require more than first hand experience early-on.
I have pasted some code snippets of my game to help @caniaclover, feel free to use snippets from my code :slight_smile:

Anyways, may i ask, do you have any experience in any other programming/IT or other tech fields or have you messed with them for fun at all? Knowing that will help a lot.

And on that note, if you are making a 2D game, its your lucky day, because the game i am working on is a 2D JRPG, now if you are doing 3D, well, I have actually never messed with the 3D engine before :sweat_smile: (i am a NES/SNES gamer at heart )

Anyways, good luck on your endeavors

HP Victus seems like a perfectly capable computer to develop with Godot. You can start with the official 2D tutorial.

Not sure about AT&T Verge 2, it’s a phone right? Technically you can develop on a phone, I’d highly recommend connecting a keyboard and mouse it to though. You can build games from your computer to play on Android phones if that is your goal.
