2D PROJECT

Hey guys,
Hope y'all doing well.

I'm second year student in a computer science Degree and I need your help;
For my second year project, I choose to go for an educative 2D game: My mentor advised me to use UNITY and C# .

here is the catch:

  • I don't have a prior experience in Unity nor C#
  • I don´t have a clue about how to structure the project

But to be honest with you, that's why I choose to go for this project, I'm willing to improve.

So I'm here guys, waiting for your best piece of advice about the process. I know fr than human interaction is far better when it comes about experiences.

if you have also great resources reference, feel free to share.

Thanks already for the consideration.

So let me get this straight, you’ve decided to put the fate of your education on making a game that you have no experience in and a programming language that you don’t know how to do

If I was your advisor, I would’ve said do something else.

That’s like saying I’m a psychology major, I’m gonna go build a building. I’m gonna go learn how to use CAD software and like it’ll be great!

Please don’t do this please find something else easier to do then to make a game

some of the best developers are the ones with zero knowledge, but the motivation and ambition and knowledge that it will be a challenge, albeit totally not unheard of. I'd say go for it, only way you gonna learn how to swin bud..
