I bought an online course on gamedeving before I quit my job to work fulltime on Taiyo, back then I only had some designs for enemies and a very different looking protagonist.
Truth be told, the course was terrible xD
But I make do with youtube tutorials on gamemaker and the help of friends who are better coders than I am. 12 months ago I had zero experience, and I still like to think of myself as a newbie, but this process did teach me that anyone can do it, if you have an idea you want to bring into life, go for it!
Also, I love playing porn games and I wanted to make one. K byeeee 😆
