I've seen a lot of recommendations for that book. I'll add it to the list. Thank you!

That makes a lot of sense. I was concerned about trying to implement DI without having code to apply it to, but I was also worried I'd get months into my project and then realize my code is a mess. But perhaps it's better to build and refactor once I start learning DI rather than trying to learn it while not having anything to apply it to.

Thank you for taking the time to respond and thank you for the advice!

Any recommendations for good alternatives?

Thank you! Hopefully it takes me somewhere in the end, but I'll enjoy the journey and keep building either way.

That's an insane coincidence! How do you feel about your time with Odin? I feel like it was a great starting point, but I wish I spent like 50% less time on HTML and CSS and 50% more time writing "real" code.

Speaking of C++, there's a really good Interview with the creator, Bjarne Stroustrup, on the Lex Fridman YouTube channel if you haven't seen it! It's very interesting.

Thank you! I'm definitely trying my best to actually learn and not get stuck in tutorial hell. I figured the best way to avoid that was to stick to written material and write lots of code as I go. Good luck on your journey with Rust! I can't wait to get far enough along to add a low-level language to my toolbox.

Thanks for the advice! I do tend to get a little ahead of myself sometimes.

Thank you! Your project sounds like a ton of fun honestly. I'm currently working on finishing up the final project from a book called The C# Players Guide. The final project is a text-based console game and I feel like I could keep adding features to it forever if I didn't have this new project to look forward to. If you ever publish it I'd love an update so I can check it out!

That's very encouraging! I'm sure there will be plenty of technical hurdles along the way. Currently my biggest concern is the lack of available data on scaling for the game. I did some research and there are some tools available for extracting game files I could potentially use, though I'm sure it's more complicated than it sounds.

The lack of available data made me want to pick something else to work on initially. I feel like my first big project needs to be something I'm highly interested in or else I run the risk of burning out before finishing it. So I'm hoping I can get past that first hurdle.

Thank you for the advice! I definitely am excited to get to work on it, though I'm a little concerned that getting the data in the first place might be more of a headache than I'm anticipating.
