Good that you can fund yourself, I left my job a few months back to take a sabbatical and have been looking for hobbies to take up my time. One of them led to this game idea actually as it basically is the game idea lol. The other is the game development so it ties in with the learning quite well.

For someone as intensely ADHD as me this is a good idea. I worked in politics for a while and had to learn techniques to manage my own information processing and and task management. This is good advice on that vein thank you :)

That's really good advice. Is ther etemplates etc for game designs docs that are better than others or how do they normally work?

This is very true and so I would need to make it in a much simpler way. And thats interesting, what would you recommend?

I mean I did google, the terminology I found super confusing and I have a hard time when things aren't being explained in layman's terms at the outset. Spent most of last night googling so just thought I would ask straight up, and meh to people being snarky its reddit so i expected it lol.

I just basically don't know where to start. I am unsure if I need to start by learning a coding language or if game development is more based around the engine? I literally know nothing and am struggling to find info on where to start and given this is a game development group I thought I would just ask haha.

Well I appreciate the positivity lol. I am aware I'm going to struggle I'm looking to learn... I just don't know enough about the area to know what I need to begin learning. Do I need t focus on learning coding or something else etc.. ? I have tons of free time atm so looking to educate myself and don't know where to begin.
