You're my hero Nathan. Thank you for doing so much to help encourage and empower people to follow their dreams. You're having such a huge and positive impact. ✨️ Keep up the great work! ✨️

[@Gdquest]

This is a late reply but thank you very much for writing these kind words.

[@SirSpudly]

I did the vampire survivors tutorial in January and it helped a lot to learn the engine 👍

[@Gdquest]

3D one coming up!

@@Gdquest awesome

[@scooupa]

Started my journey in Godot yesterday, my first ever game engine

[@ironoreiron]

I just want a video on how to use godot, like using files and stuff, I already know the coding part

[@homo_ludens62]

I'm a game design student and our damn school just teaches unity ans ue. Duck million dollar hungry companies, glory to open source community tools! Thank for all guides guys 😊

[@Mohammedali-ck7sv]

Where are you studying?

[@Fleepwn]

I'm no expert, but if you do go through the trouble of getting a degree in something like that, they shouldn't limit you to one platform... What's the point of that

[@homo_ludens62]

@@Fleepwn actually not one but two. Unity and Unreal Engine. But still it ain't cool. They should let us choose the engine we want.

[@sagecole8055]

lucky im a game dev student and I dont get to use anything like that. im stuck coding entire games with java, c++, web based with javascript. Was fun getting to use Android Studio for 1 project but still nothing like unity or unreal. Where you study maybe i need to switch lol

[@dragonpenguin_]

Thank you!

[@nelly2958]

This is a godsend I’ve only been able to find tutorials from years ago

[@IonutBalica]

I followed the tutorial with the shooting incoming blobs game and it was great. In addition to the totorial I added a menu, pause menu, win/lose menu, and sounds for the gun, bullet impact, blob death, win/lose and soundtrack.

[@Gdquest]

Woah! That sounds amazing :) If you upload a video, I'd love to see it.

[@yipyipyipi]

Same, it is such a good jumping off point. I also added stuff like a menu and sounds. Now I'm working on a dig-dug clone, it's been a great way to learn how to use and manipulate tilemaps with code.

[@rmt3589]

I can use C++!? That's amazing!!!

[@Kwiatkovv]

WOWWWWWW LOVE YOU GUYS

[@KawsMeCal]

There's no link in the video for the last part.

[@Gdquest]

There are no links in YT Shorts descriptions. The link you're referring to is on the video itself at the bottom and it remains there for the whole duration of the video.

[@williampiti]

I like your explanations but you do not include how to create a control for phones

[@ArcangelZero7]

I'm in that weird valley where I'm not super new to Godot, but I'm still learning 3.5. What's the best way to smoothly ramp into the changes introduced in Godot 4 without starting back at "brand new to gamedev" tutorials?

[@Gdquest]

Look up the videos we released since December, those will help you ramp up on what's new in Godot 4. Same for the 3 release videos (4.0, 4.1 and 4.2). We made multiple open source demos you could play with to see what's new in 4.0. They're linked in that release video. I also hear some experienced people have followed the 2D tutorial without getting bored too so it could be a good way to break the ice with Godot 4.

[@catsotorious]

​​@@GdquestSide note: As someone who did the 2D shooter tutorial AND the Learn GDScript form Zero: never was I bored!! You guys did such a great job making everything so accessible, and I'm even in a GameJam now a month after starting with your free learning materials. You are a godsend

[@ArcangelZero7]

@@Gdquest Looks like a roadmap to me! I'm sure this will help a ton! As always, you're all breathtaking, and quite literally life-changing, Gdquest team. Thank you for all you do! :)

[@BrenoGF144]

Hi, just a question: what is the 3d game shown early in the vid?

[@Gdquest]

The one at the beginning of the video is our own and that character with the blue hair is Sophia. You find her a lot in our demos and tutorials.

Which link are you referring to? The tutorial, as mentioned, is linked in the video itself (at the bottom of shorts, there is usually a link to another video). For the rest of the tools, you can find them on gdquest.com

[@ViViViVuVuVu]

Extra step: follow brackeys new godot tutorials :)))

[@babyfox205]

Is it good for small 2d games in browser like for Poki website?

[@gocmine5912]

I cant run it on mobile 😢

[@darkdragondevelopment]

am i old because i read this as 1960's roadmap i was thinking why? haha

[@Gdquest]

:D : D

[@crabbycrabman]

My only problem is my lack of motivation

[@Gdquest]

Sometimes all it takes is to start on a good foot.

[@tejaswithme3713]

Great tutorial brother! 😊❤ But atleast add a script file in description, its yt people come here for easy & fast solutions.

[@Gdquest]

You cannot add links in the description of YT Shorts.

[@ritoon2223]

Thanks, but I'm live in Belarus, I can't learn Gdscript😢

[@Gdquest]

Why can't you learn GDScript ? The app is free and so it the tour and the 2D game tutorial.

[@ritoon2223]

Because, I don't speak english very well, In the App I can't translate this lessons.

[@polanexas]

I kinda need an offline app :l Thats downloadable, cuz internet lol

[@Gdquest]

You can download the app from itch.io :) gdquest.itch.io/learn-godot-gdscript

[@iwavrQwpX4uB39nilBlQ]

the free app in the browser is just unusable for lower end pc's, it's like trying to run a game at ultra settings 😭

[@Gdquest]

It shouldn't be the case. Try downloading it. We uploaded a downloadable version on itch.io. gdquest.itch.io/learn-godot-gdscript

[@iwavrQwpX4uB39nilBlQ]

@@Gdquesti didn't expect a response, i didn't know it could be downloaded! thank you so much! ive tried this on three different pc's throughout the years, all not very good, and on each one it always was at an unbearable frame rate haha. again, thank you so much!

[@Observer552]

WAIT WHAT Can I use C# (or C++ or the another.... I just forgot :D) for programming Godot?

[@CloudsAndDays]

If you hate dogs this much and your partner is an absolute dog lover who says they can’t be happy without a dog in their life, perhaps that isn’t the best relationship for you two? There seems to be a fundamental incompatibility here?

[@robertcrawford52]

the site hides the free your...I get that you want to sell courses, but this video feels like a lie...

[@Gdquest]

The free things are featured around the top of the page. Here's a direct link which is also in the video description now: www.gdquest.com/tutorial/godot/learning-paths/beginner/

[@shark6350]

Someone like my comment so I can come back

[@nowonmetube]

Pro tip: Don't start with Godot at all. Start somewhere else.

[@iklanfaris]

First code ?

[@Gdquest]

Actually the steps outlined in the video roadmap have worked for many beginners with no prior coding experience. The tip that person is giving you is not actually a tip but their opinion of the Godot engine (which we do not share nor do the thousands of people who use it).

[@nowonmetube]

@@iklanfaris not necessarily, but on top of that there's other issues with Godot, which I'm not going into detail right here, to not just sound like a hater.

[@nowonmetube]

@@Gdquest well I tried Godot for a months, and I'm definitely not a beginner (not saying I'm good at coding or anything), but it was still too hard to wrap my head around it. But besides, there's other issues with Godot itself, which I just learned a few days ago, _after_ I stopped using it for several reasons.

[@Gdquest]

You don't sound like a hater at all and you're very much entitled to your opinion and your experience is no less valid if ours happened to be different from yours. I wish I was able to help when you were trying out Godot.

[@gladiko2364]

Why would anyone waste their to to learn script language that is completely useless anywhere else?

[@Gdquest]

It takes maybe a couple of hours to learn and with the integration it offers a nice experience. Plus the knowledge is transferable: The language itself is pretty small, it is imperative and object oriented, and all the APIs you learn apply to C# and C++. So you can easily take a little leap anytime. The very short learning and nice integrated experience are probably the two main reasons.

[@DiegoGameDeveloper]

Dude it's My first time on this Channel and I want to learn Godot since I'm still brand new to game development. Thanks a lot guys 😸

[@Gdquest]

Welcome! :)

[@nowonmetube]

I wouldn't start with Godot. My tip is to stay away from it.

[@DiegoGameDeveloper]

Dont listen to that guy. Start with Godot, its great and good for beginners.@@DiegoGameDeveloper

[@almightyminataur4000]

Same boat. I first tried with game maker but goddamn 99% of tutorials were outdated as hell

[@LagFlicks]

thank you! i keep picking it up every once in a while and getting confused on where to start

[@Nicole-nk7jc]

why weren't these things around a year ago when I was making a game 😭😭 it would've been so much easier

[@alejmc]

It’s insane hard work, I recently bought the GDQuest early access to the Godot fundamentales (the bundle of 3 one) and can attest that this guy Nathan and company must be working around the clock. I hadn’t seen any of it before either and to be honest there’s not THAT much still (compared to Unreal or Unity, the latter taking the crown), but what’s surfacing is definitely top quality and probably will cover what 95% of people will need (myself included)

[@Gdquest]

We're so happy to read this. We're tiny so yes we work around the clock but it's completely worth it when we get feedback like this. Thanks a lot for writing. As a small unsolicited reveal: The next module dropping very soon is huge and called "Loot it All!"

[@Juan_deep]

BULSHITTT they selling courses for $250 i knew it was too good to be true

[@Gdquest]

Everything listed in the video is free. Check out the free videos on the channel (over 500), plus search for learn Gdscript from zero, this interactive course is not only free, it's also open source like Godot.

[@trjross]

I don't understand the tilemap business, I've been trying to learn for the past two days in my spare time and i just cannot comprehend how to get an imported texture on a tilemap into my actual scene

[@_Lostinthesky]

I’ve been trying to get into game dev for so long now I really hope this works thank you

[@kurama65299]

Hi man, i see this comment is recent so i will tell you how to enter in game dev into a normal person perspective: 1- Make schedules, for example, wake up at 8am, wake up immediately and stretch yourself for 15 seconds, then go fast to take a coffee or something with sugar, now you are awake, start a timer of 3-4 hours, until it stops, you can't do anything that isn't tutorials or coding, take 5 minutes of mental rest every 30 minutes. 2- Repeat it until you want, this technique make me better to learn languages, game dev, web development, etc. Idk if you will care this but there is the info. PD: i am not english so sorry if i have bad gramatic 😅

[@CosmicFever]

What should i use if i have a decent amount of python knowledge?

[@Gdquest]

Definitely GDScript in your case.

[@CosmicFever]

@@Gdquest I meant what tutorials and such should I use 😅

[@Gdquest]

Same as in the video if you're new to Godot. Just skip the Learn GDScript app. Then from there you can watch the series we posted on new features in Godot 4 just to be aware they exist.
