@godot @godotengine Passed 27 courses during the weekend. Good course to know the foundations of GDScript.

Can anybody recommend me what to pursue next in learning Godot?

@feuiuxbe @godot @godotengine I learn the best if I pick a simple project and try to solve it on my own. Those project should be something where a lot of references are already available so I can seek help if I get stuck.

So you could create for example a clone of Snake or Pong and go from there. Make a short plan what should be in the game and give it a got.

I would try to limit such a project to a week in scope, this allows you to try another one after or abort if it gets boring.

Do you recommend this way of learning over YouTube videos if I were to introduce others to the engine?

My experience with earlier GDQuest content has been pretty good in the past but the new courses are pretty pricy.

I struggled a while until I started learning basics of python. After that its a lot easier when I'm not learning the basics of programming AND the engine.

It was easier to piece stuff together through a course like this for me, because it is more connected. So more learning per minute because of its structuring. I would try both and see what clicks better with you.

I used the firebelley Udemy course. Liked the guys voice and the speed of the course.
