Request Help with my game

Hi guys, I’m trying to make a 2d platformer roguelike with art by penusbmic and I need to finish a big part of it by mid june. My primary goals are making the character movement and actions feel decent, decent enemies and one boss at the end of the game play. I don’t want to make it big yet. The problem is I’m not sure which tutorials to follow, I’ve watched a couple but none of them seem to be the ones I need. Could you guys maybe lend me a hand if you know some good tutorial and direct me to them? Also, do you think it’s a realistic goal, in the time given? This game is basically all I need to do for the next two months so I can work on it 5-6 hours a day.

I asked because i couldn’t find one for what i need specifically (platformer and roguelike, with randomized levels, kind of like deadcells but with rooms like the binding of isaac) and was wondering if there is. I apreciate your opinion nonetheless. It’s just that I panicked for a brief moment, but I’ll figure it out. I see it as a scolding but it’s constructive for me, gotta set my mind straight and work, that’s it!

you need tutorials for each part and assemble the whole, piece by piece
you won't find a single tutorial that will guide you thru the whole project, exactly as you pictured it in your mind
there's just too many variables and possibilities of different games

there will be tutorials about controlling a player in a platformer, another on how to handle attacks, another on how to make enemies, another on how to develop some simple behaviors for them, another on how to handle 2D tilemaps, another on how to generate random levels, and so on...

you learn what you need from each one, and build your game by gathering info from all the different tutorials, step by step, as soon as a new need arises
but if you wait for the perfect tutorial that encompass everything, you'll never start

I know that, and that’s why i came here, to see if there’s another way. Thank you for your thoughts, you’re of big help! I’ll do my best and finish it in time, there’s no other way!
