In this video we talk about how to get started when you have no idea how. We discuss building competence in your abilities, continuous learning, producing content when you don't feel good enough, utilizing other people's expertise and consistent progress.

We share all of our favourite game dev resources based on hundreds of hours of our own research time, all of which we actually have used or still do use ourselves.
