I’ve got this idea for a videogame about dogs, a mix of slice of life and fantasy adventure with some sci-fi elements. There’s also a big villain with some twists later on. Problem is, I can’t draw very well, and I can’t program or animate either. Where should I start learning, what should I look into, or where could I share my ideas? Any advice helps. Thanks.
Patch is cute, did you know he had a PS1 game?

Udemy has deep sales on courses covering those topics every other week it seems. I got two courses for $45 when normally a single one would cost upwards of $100. Of course it varies from course to course, and that’s if you prefer a slightly more formal approach to learning and enjoy structure. If you’re more of an autodidact, I’d recommend grabbing some ebooks from Libgen (though last time I checked it was down and folks were cracking down on it and its mirrors).

>Problem is, I can’t draw very well, and I can’t program or animate eitherYou pick a skill, search beginner tutorials and keep asking yourself every week or so if you want to keep doing it. Make small unrelated projects that only require your skill level. Mspaint shitpost that no one will ever see? Good enough, at least you finished it. Then you'll either spend years on your dream project or realise that you need other people to do 80% of it and spend years on your dream project.

>>720748806>anon is actually helpful Thank you.
>>720746061I didn't know.
>>720748806>loomisfagshoo, back to /ic/ with you.
>>720751915Manga artists recommend Loomis too
>>720751915Name something better then. No for real, I'm also about to fall for Loomis and I wanna know if there's something better
>>720752596Is there something better than Loomis?
>>720752596>>720753060All the guides no matter by whom teach you constructing, sketching, propotions and posing. Loomis simply the best known. When studying Loomis, don't copy but apply it to things you want to draw
>>720753060My friend swears by Keys to Drawing
>>720752596You don't actually need loomis or any other similar shit, just draw by yourself and pick up things by seeing others and learning fron them. Don't fall for the /ic/ cultists' tricks.
>>720754779Curious cup. I'm sure some people here want one.

Pick an engine you'd like to work in and start watching youtube tutorials on that engine to git gud.
>>720758472What engines are out there?
>>720758858unity, unreal. hell you can use google ai to help you make a 2d engine now. you still need experience to fix the bugs and refine the text
>>720755739Hell yeah I do.
>>720759481i want one with houndoom that changes color when its hot
>>720758858RPG Maker 2003
Krita or Clipstudio Paint for digital art.Aseprite if you're doing pixel art.I can't recommend engines or anything because all I use is Gamemaker, and I probably shouldn't recommend it to anyone else even though I think it's comfy to work in.
