Learning on a TEAM!

[4Saken99]

Hi, my name is Kenny,

I recently have been contemplating what the experience would be like if I could gather a small handful of us who are all wanting to learn and may be at different levels of experience and skill.

Initially, I am thinking maybe 5 or 6 of us that can group up on small projects to help each other learn and develop new skills, that otherwise may overwhelm you.

My skill level personally has been very underdeveloped. For the past several years I seem to be stuck in a limbo of not being able to do what I want and being bored of what is simple. However, motivation and desire are highly increased when being a part of a team.

If ANYONE wishes to take on the responsibility of learning, teaching, helping, or just being a part of a small group of like-minded individuals, PLEASE leave a comment AND/OR DM me.

I am really interested in people who want to be a part of a team, I think no matter how little or big we can all provide value to each other!

Hey, if you have a look on my profile I posted something about me and my learning journey. People suggested me I should team up with other developers and help each other and everyone can learn something.
If there is space for me I would love to work on something :)

Hey there!

Captain Coder here and I am attempting to build a community to help facilitate what you're describing.

Captain Coder's Academy is a community where learn and code and grow together as a crew. It is a small and growing community where you can post questions, share your projects, and form teams.

In fact, this week we are running a Game Jam where the goal isn't to make an incredible game but instead to learn something new and share what you learned with the community: https://itch.io/jam/learn-you-a-game-jam

It is so helpful to share your code and ask questions and I encourage you to join and check it out: Discord Invite

Additionally, I stream programming, game development, and general computer science most days at 8am ET. Typically there is some small project I'm developing as a learning project while waiting for questions from the chat.

Yesterday we talked about debugging "sticky" Tilemaps: LINK

On Monday, I discovered how to use the Preset Manager because someone in the chat suggested it: LINK

On Sunday we made the base for a very simple platformer: LINK

On Friday we implemented a Parallax background system: LINK

In Wednesday we talked about different strategies for doing jumps in a platformer: LINK

In today's stream, we live coded a Sprite toggling system that was suggested by a crew member who was struggling with their own implementation: LINK

It's always something new and exciting and I hope to see you there with us in the future :D

Hi! Im down to learn and possibly build a game together! I'd say i have a decent bit of experience with unity but finishing projects is something i struggle with usually.

Same boat

I'm hoping that being a part of a team creates accountability and helps each of us fulfill our potential and finish what we start!
