ngl hoping I can find some free sounds and learn ui quick enough xD I seem to do better on structure and a goal so I figured a game jam would be real nice for that.
Viewing post in First ever game jam as a complete noob any tips?
If you have some time tonight, just hop on to youtube and look for "how to create a simple UI in godot". Watch it once to get a bit of an understanding what's happening, and then follow it step by step during the jam if you want. As far as assets, grab the asset pack that's advertised on the main page. It's got a lot of stuff and should take the guesswork out of all of that. Worst case, use them while you're making the thing and then when you're done, go find some other free stuff you like the look of more. Other than that, just break your idea up into little chunks and look up how to do each thing. Making a player, make it move, make it bump things, make things die, etc. Remember there's no pressure to any of this, and there's people with even less experience than you. Enjoy yourself and have some fun with the whole thing. Good luck :)
