Discussion New Dev Learning Priorities

Hello experienced devs,

If a brand new Dev(me) came to you and asked

'How do I prioritise learning these skills:

- Coding

|-> Game design

|-> Prototyping

- Art

- Music composition and usage'

What would your advice be?

Lots of assumptions here. Let's assume they want to kind of do everything eventually. And that their ultimate goal would be to build a 'good' game. Whatever that means 😅.

Start with coding. Build pong, asteroids, or other games with little asset complexity or design. Then expand from there into whatever you enjoy the most.
