How to start Game development
I used to play games like GTA vice city when I was in 2nd-3rd standard. Then, I thought about how these games are made. So I started exploring about creating games and other kinds of softwares then I got introduced with programming, then I started taking many kinds of courses of programming, I started exploring the different kinds of fields of programming. I learnt many things from my journey so I will be the right person to guide you for learning anything. So now let’s come to the main topic :-
What is Game development
Developing different kinds of games using coding, designing and many other things is called game development.
What tools to use
When it comes to starting something then we need to explore the tools we need for using it. Similarly, while developing games we need to use a software called game engine there are two game engines which I suggest for beginners:-
Unity (uses C# programming language)
Unreal Engine (uses C++ programming language)
In this post I will be telling you mainly about the unity game engine. I will be also giving you a correct path through which you will be able to learn a programming language and then also learn the game specific things like the game design.

Now let’s quickly discuss the resources you need for learning game development:-
The first resource where you will be starting game development is this ebook created from Unity's professionals and game designers at PUBG(playerunknown's battlegrounds) called the Unity game designer playbook. In this ebook you will be learning about getting started with unity,How to use assets from asset stores, how you can create gameplay with unity and many more things. This is a completely free ebook which consists of 100 pages.
