GDScript (and Programming!) for Beginners in Godot 3.2

In this video for absolute beginners, I introduce the concepts of variables, functions, comments, operators, conditionals and types in GDScript for Godot 3.2.

These core concepts are the fundamental building blocks of every programming language, and once you have mastered these key programming for beginners concepts you will have built a solid foundation to continue your game development journey.

This may be 2 years later but this might be the best tutorial I’ve seen in my life

In 20 Minutes U took A person thet Literally knows nothing about Coding to a pretty good level thank you so match

[chaunceya]

Please do more like this. Your way of teaching and focus on the fundamentals is the best in Godot right now. Thank you so much for your work. :D

I scoured the face of youtube for a couple days, and this tutorial helped me the most! thanks boi

[mrweevilcom]

Man, you should make more videos like this gradually complicating the topic. With your ability to explain things you should have way more subscribers.

omg thanks so much for making this video Tom. I have learned basic GDscript through a udemy course and can't wait to expand my knowledge to use in future gamejams. :)

Straight up the best intro to code video I've seen! Nice work Tom!

[knightgamer]

Thanks for the video please don't stop here please make a complete guide

Hi Tom. You are an excellent teacher. Keep going with tutorials, you are a cut above most on youtube. Cheers!

[Pygorable]

you explain things very clearly. it's very easily understandable, especially as a person who's used python before. also, you have a very good voice, unlike many other programmers on youtube I've seen so far.

I know very basics of C++ (creating methods, classes, functions, constructions etc.) and this helps me a lot when learning another language.

Why didn't you show how you created 'player' on your scene? Whatkind of node is 'player'? I'm new to godot.

Super tutorial.
I started learning GODOT 4 months ago.
But I learned from youtube, and understand that all teachers focus on the programmer who have prior knowledge of other programming.

I appriciate and welcome your method of teaching. I finally started understanding GDScript


Thanks a lot Tom
I look forward for your more tutorials

[EasyBit_Ez]

Awesome tutorial, I stopped watching a different tutorial just to watch yours!

[captainkawaii]

I learned way more from this tutorial than I have anywhere else, this is really useful!

[stephenweishaar]

Got a subscribe! Love the fact that you explained the basics of the scripting. Need more basic tutorials please! Have an 11 year old that talks of game development, so would live to be able walk with him through the basics and neither of us have any programing/scripting experience. Very helpful video! Would love to see more basic and focused videos on say creating and moving a Player Character, then the same for an Enemy, or level creation and the list just goes on! Please do more!

Tutorials like this are working great for me, that is ones where you might go through various coding exercises to help make this into a skill.
