I am already on 6th year of my "4 month" game :P

[chaelandrade]

I’m software engineer and man this steps should be applied to any software related careers

[TheBendixSA]

This is one of the BETTER "how to game dev" vids on youtube. The two books he recommends are also very good books. Well done bud.

I'm gonna fart out a tiny game with with one level. No matter how ugly it is I agree with codeMonoey. It's better to have something small and finished than something huge half-assed and incomplete.

1. Download a game engine
2. Make one of those old arcade games (pong, space invaders, astroids, etc)
3. Compare to the original

Step one: Make a video telling people how to become a game developer in 2020
Step two: When one year passes by, change the title and thumbnail of the video to say it's for 2021
Step three: Profit

[daars]

This is exactly what I needed. I wish more devs made clear maps on how to get to the end point instead of pointless videos.

[nicoblasss]

Super helpful as always. Concrete advice that is very uplifting and reasuring for newcomers, like myself, for starting to work towards realistic and fruitful proyects.

You are really making a difference for so many of us, can't thank you enough

[aggressivemastery]

Great Recommendations again Code Monkey! Getting in and aware of the editor and tools will take time, its taken me a year. Looking at your steps, and looking back at what I've done, its dead on, besides the releases to Steam :) <3

[biggulpj]

Great video, was thinking about getting into game development and this is just what I needed. Thank you very much!

[pixigirldust]

I’m 12 years old and I have big dreams on becoming a game developer, so I wanted to start early but didn’t know just how to start.

I wanted to learn how to create a game before I turn 13 in April. Thanks for the tips!

[runswithpencil]

I'm so glad I found your channel, I've just completed stage 3, but it's taken me six months already lol. Just ordered Clean Code and Code Complete, we got dis!

[vexxy]

i already tried game developing earlier in 2019, but i gave up very easily, these tips helped me really out!

[MatthewTrecozzi]

I'm going to commit to logging my journey through attempting these milestones. I want this to be a great year for pushing forward my game dev skills, and being involved in the community.

[Alexander_Meyer]

Bought the clean code book, thank you for your dedication!

[kennyzfd]

Thank you for putting a list of the 7 steps in the beginning of the video, respect, i subscribed after seeing that.

[katrinakitchen]

This was incredibly helpful and encouraging thank you :)

[mythikyn]

I've been toying around with Unity for a few months now and was considering taking it a little more seriously (albeit as a hobby) in 2020.
I think you just gave me the push I needed. So, thank you ^_^

As a returning game developer (stopped in 2010, due to personal issues), I’m focusing now on learning the different tools unity provides (omg how I love shader graph!) and on developing tiny playable demos just to get my head around everything. Your tutorials have been really helpful. Thank you so much!
