By the by I made a Ko-fi :3 so it will work like a little “Tip Jar” for my work, and everysingle tip on that page will be directly to my savings for my Art school, (which I was also saving on Patreon those) Anyway if you want to support my dream here is the link! KO-FI
so you want to learn to code? ^w^ epic !! you can always take classes and whatnot, but you can also learn online >w<
if you’re interested in making a game, the first question is do you want to try and create it with a game maker, or with a programming language! game makers will be much easier for those who haven’t programmed, but doing it by yourself gives you much more control over every aspect of the game :}
if you’re looking at making a fairly typical game, or an rpg, or a text based game, and you don’t need many custom mechanics, it might be good to look into gamemakers ! but if you don’t have the money, or you’d like to step outside of the box, here’s where you can get started :D
big big huge biggest question :} what language would you like to learn! there are a ton of different languages, and they’re all useful for different things :D let me introduce you to a couple of common ones! (note: you can learn a language if you like, then move on to a game ide (which might help you understand the overall coding concepts more) or you can go straight to a game ide and learn whatever language it uses, which i think might be more difficult but if you’re only interested in making games, it should b fine!)
html+css+javascript: these are used in tandem for making responsive websites!
python: generally considered a good language for beginners, syntax is very different than java-like languages, tends to not be used for games but some like the sims 4 and doki doki literature club are made in it / use it!
java: the big guns… this can teach you the base for a lot of key programming concepts that are crucial in game making! i also find my knowledge of java to be very translatable to pretty much any coding problems i come across :D java was used to make minecraft, simcity, and more. although it’s certainly not the top choice for game devs, its very similar to the one that most people use ^_^
c++/c#: even though these are languages with different bases, i’m grouping them together because they’re both included in unity :3 these are the guys you want to get to know well if you’re learning games! the syntax is very very similar to java, and c++ is an object oriented language just like java ! the differences between the two come down to things like garbage collection and interpreters, which just means they’re going to feel the same to write in ^_^
Here are some resources for the different languages :}

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/learn/csharp
(you’ll notice that most of the places have the same names, codeacademy is a rlly great place to learn all of these languages ^u^)
another incredible resource is youtube! im not going to link videos because i personally haven’t used too many for learning these languages (i read books p much) but finding a tutorial that you vibe with is a really nice way to start, and there’s a lot of great free materials on there!
resources for learning unity:

i’m not linking a lot of these because i’m just linking the ones that were the absolute most helpful ones to me, but hopefully these should at least get you started!
i wish y’all luck if you’re learning coding and game making :} it’s hard but its very rewarding! feel free to msg me here if you have any questions or just want to talk abt game stuff ^_^

Eating while on shift is not permitted, staff are told. “If the system detects no keyboard stroke and mouse click, it will show you as idle for that particular duration, and it will be reported to your supervisor. So please avoid hampering your productivity.”
A training video about the webcam system, seen by the Guardian, says it “monitors and tracks real-time employee behaviour and detects any violations to pre-set business rules, and sends real-time alerts to managers to take corrective actions immediately”.

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
One loves to tell stories, the other loves to listen. Sounds like a match made in heaven to me~
