"I think that half of being a programmer is knowing how to Google"
Well Said lol
I completely agree!
Only half?
Er, I mean, hello employers, these guys are crazy there's so much more to it than that
My Google is full of questions type-like *_"How add one to my int Unity_*
No joke though, being a programmer is mostly knowing the right questions to ask.
When the internet stops, all programmers go on a brake.
Can't wait for the jam! :DD
Me too dani
I love u
So hype
Dani we love your dab XD
I want to eat the same thing as jabrils.
I want to hit the sack in the same manner as dani.
I want to paint thick black outlines like noa.
I want to poly the realms of high quality terrain with sykoo.
I want to debug every log and rigid every body while the same is done by brackeys.
Daddy dani
YOU MADE KILL PILL??? THAT WAS LIKE MY FAVORITE GAME IN MIDDLE SCHOOL!!!
You must be old by now
@@dailymemies I mean, does 16 count?
@@retrocademediaofficial Oh, my sweet summer child. Real old people are 18. 😎😎😎
@@helmersoft5205 Thought that said my sweet summer chili. Was very confused.
Game was cool was good to play with my old pc windows 1920
Brackeys starts youtube channel...
Unity rates rise to 100%
You dont happen to have a game jam going on right now, do you
3010ncg jeez it was joke calm down man flipping people getting annoyed over knowing lmao
So pumped for the jam dude! =D Awesome video btw, really valuable tips shared.
Nice to see you here sykoo! 😊
Hi sykoo
hey sykoo funny to see u here. :) u rock too.
wonder if its Possible to Track your Eye and make into a Mouse Movement
if it is then can you make a Point and Click Adventure with it?
if you wonder why i question this, Its Simple!, a FPS Game Like Sword Art Online (GUNGALE, Something like that)
and see if its Possible Recreate that type of Gameplay, (i know theres a PC game of Gungale, but im more Curiose about the Concept of Shooting People in the Head using your Eyeballs, like Come on!, LASER EYES! WOOOOOO!)
Sykoo here!!
That was one of my favorite Brackeys videos :D ! Very interesting game dev journey.
And of course, I'm mega excited for the jam, it's awesome to have the trailer included in this video :))
the trailer was super cool
Hi Noah 👋😊
amazing trailer btw xdd
Your trailer was amazing. As always, nice art!

Thanks Brackeys. This video has inspired me to start making my own MMO RPG as a solo dev with no budget or experience.

If we team up, we can make the next WoW, you the coding, the art, the planning, and I will do the research on the market.
"Have you ever done something really pointless in your life?"
I lost the count
School lol
@@JustLeonOfficial Im 13 and being a game dev under schoolwork is impossible
@@redbepis4600 I'm 13, and I can't make games too, because of the school. But you can make games at weekend. (Sorry for my bad english.)
I just started more trouble in my life by starting game developing now I really want to finish my game but it's too hard and i didn't start simple :(
@@heroalireza90 If you want to be successful in anything that you learn, you most let yourself to be beginner.
If you do it, it will give you power but you feel the power later
What I have learnt: How to use Debug.Log
What Brackeys has learned: *EVERY THING LITERALLY EVERTHING NO JOKE EVERYTHING!!*
I showed my mom the Debug.Log I did and she was proud!
*except Debug.Log.
Lol i still do that wrong, i learned that procrastination doesnt make a good dev ,still learning that tbh
That's a new level, i only learned how to open the pc
Hahaha it's incredible how much he knows. I learned so much from his tutorials over the past year.
i wonder if he knows about print() lol
lol glad I found this channel, its so positive and informative. have a good vaycay!
These tutorials are great! You manage to make such a difficult thing to learn feel so upbeat and fun! Thanks, hope you continue to upload much more still!
The biggest thing I've learned during my time programming is that I can't do everything. I can code all day long, but when it comes to graphic design and complex animation, I'm an utter failure.
Ah don't say your a failure! We all just have strengths and weaknesses. For example, I can code, kind of do art, but I can't do music/sound for my life. I keep trying, but your right we can't do everything. I'm starting to use more assets now and just focus on the things I'm good at. And regardless, it just takes practice!
Don’t say that practice and you will get good and spend as much as time possible on what you are doing
Thank you so much for this video. I have been on the fence with trying a hand at Unity and C# and have no clue in either (or very very little) and this video is great inspiration towards learning! Actually after watching this video and seeing your progress I've devided to become a Patreon! Thank you!
thank you for all the years you kept teaching and inspiring us
I'll be participating for sure! Great job guys - love the effort everyone is making to grow this community.
I've been watching your videos since you started RUclips and its wonderful to see how much you've improved, keep up the good work
Looking forward to the jam. Gonna be a fun week :D
The game jam has been added to my calendar.will be my first ever game jam looking forward to it.
Thanks for sharing your experiences 😊 it was really helpful
Just swinging by to say that you've massively gripped me since I started watching you, and helped me make the jump to unity as a person who hasn't used it before.
Totally interested in taking part in a game jam.
I just love how he said that he tried to make his own game jam. This reminds me of my first attempts at using OpenGL. It took me one whole week for showing my first triangle with OpenGL. Luckily I am way further now. But this one first triangle always takes ages.
I have never completed a game before. I'm currently doing my first game jam, a second one in the beginning of August... And now you tell me you'll be hosting one in the end of August?
Looks like this is my life now
You're videos really help me be a game developer, thanks you so much for making all of this RUclips videos :D
Love this video! It was inspiring and a little uplifting. I've got more than a good few games I've started and either just scrapped or never finished. Sometimes it feels hopeless but more often than not the only thing I really want to be doing is making games. Just keep on learning, and keep on having fun!
seriously, your videos is the reason why i passed my assignment! haha thanks a lot my friend!
Awesome video!!! I just posted by one year of learning and the longest I've seen is maybe three years. Ten years is incredible. I started learning from your tutorials. Thank you!
That old intro! I remember that foundly, it was when I got into learning Unity, thanks for sharing the knowledge juice!
Between the Tornado Twins and the old Brackeys intro this video was a nostalgia overload~!
Not to mention it reminded me just how long I've been watching your videos! I've been around since like, the C# tutorials.
13 years of game jam now! I still miss brackeys….
Wow i think i was 13 then i first found your channel, Remember the fps game series? such a nostalgia, now im 18. really glad i found you.
Dang that's awesome that you've been watching him for that long! Are you working on any games right now?
I knew the announcement as I already watched it on BTP's channel. I'm excited, the timing is good so I believe this'll be my first game jam! Good luck to all participating!
Really cool to see all you guys get together an organizing an event! I've been following you and everyone mentioned in the video since I started learning to game Dev. You guys taught me everything I know! Y'all are like the Justice League of computer programmers!
You've all inspired me to start a channel dedicated to game Dev tutorials as well. (Starting after I wrap up the game I'm currently working on)
I'd love to participate in the game jam, but whether or not I'll have the time will be the question. Mark me down as a "maybe".
have a happy vacation time
Ten years seems like a lot, until you remember ten years ago was 2009.
Ihatequests Dev but i was bourn in 2010
I was 3 then lol.
Now im on my first year of game development
I was 6 then
@@immasnarl292 Same, :D now I'm 10
I lied
I have just started recently getting interested in learning coding and developing games so needless to say I was pretty overwhelmed at where to start. I've been watching your and blackthornprod's channel. You guys have been a great encouragement and resource in this new endeavor!
You've come so far man, it's incredible to see!
4th year in game maker studio :)
Code like a maniac until the sky turns black.
*Laughs in surface*
StackOverflow is a dev's best friend, that is all I have to say. That and Unity is super friendly compared to other engines I've used. Namely a framework called LWJGL, and I tried Unreal, but crashed when I typed incorrect C++.
print("Hello World")
Unreal Engine: Take your "prints" back
WHat Ima SupPOSe To do With tHEse?!
I'll be on holiday for the first couple of days of the jam. Excited to see other submissions though.
Yess !!! A new game jam I've entered already. I missed out on the last one.
Thanks for tuning in at brackeys **guitar music**
You made diggin?!! That game was one of my favourites cuz I had 2gb ram and could only play browser games
Brackeys, thanks for all that you are doing. Your vids are awesome
Great motivational video. It's really good to know as a beginner that even a good programmer uses google or tutorials in general to get somewhere in their projects. I've been watching a few of your tutorials from time to time but didn't pay you any mind. After watching this video though, I can tell that you're a genuine person that is truly passionate in what you're doing, which is really inspirational for other devs, beginner or not. You just earned yourself a new subscriber.
Holy shit i remember watching your survival series when i first started wanting to make games. Completely forgot that was you.
Asbjorn, you know u r underrated, cool, and great
Seriously
My dream is to be like u(developer)
Agreed! Do you want to be a game developer or some other type?
Thanks for all the tutorials, you're inspirational, stay healthy and have fun.
This is very motivational, thank you Brackeys, you're the best!
Yo the nostalgia!! Tornado Twins, tropic kill pill! Takes me back 😩
I watched all of the 'making a survival game' tutorials when they were pretty new.
Now that you accumulated a lot more experience on game dev, do you have any plans on doing a new beginner course or even an advanced one?
I'm just waiting for the contest, you were like a mentor for me when I started in Unity
thanks for your videos dude , it really motivate me to move on with game development. :)
He tried to make a GAME ENGINE oh my god I can reach up to you in 6 years LOL
my brain:
*_unity: i’m about to end this mans whole career_*
edit : my laptop: *suffering noises*
If your laptop is a masochist try Unreal Engine. It makes my laptop sound like a helicopter taking off.
Haha
@@vrtex17 Facts
My lap cant run scratch property
but i was born in 2010
Thank you so much for your motivating video. I have been trying so hard to become a full time game developer, and at times, it is very hard. But I am always so excited when I talk to people about it. So, I won't back down, and I know that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life ! #StayStrong
I recently created my first game using your helpful tutorials. Thanks for that.
Really looking forward for the jam.
Did you finish the game?
@@saurabhsingh-mo4ji Yes, it was a simple game so I was able to complete it. Here is the link:
ruclips.net/video/mhkdfDYzBy4/видео.html
Brackeys, please make a tutorial about in app purchases (IAP)!
Alright, I just signed up for the jam. Will it have some kind of theme?
You've come a long way. It's been amazing to follow your journey!
This is really encouraging. Thanks my dude
JABRILS, DANI, BTP, BRACKEYS, SYKOO!!!1 IT'S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!!!!
0:24 also me while coding and something goes wrong
Just watching your videos inspires me. Thanks Brackeys!
wow awesome stuff Brackeys! you've come so far and done so much! keep up the good work & have fun at that game jam!! (would love to join but I probably need to know a bit more about programming... but thanks to your videos, im learning tons of helpful information so thanks a lot!!!)
Agreed! And I think you should still try to join even if you don't feel ready. Either follow youtube tutorials or work on a team. You learn a TON from participating!
@@TonsOfHunStudios thanks for the encouragement! :D are you going to the game jam?
@@jamesalbus7991 Of course! I'm going to try, I start school that week, but hopefully I can make even a little game.
@@TonsOfHunStudios well good luck! even if its just a small game, at least its a game!
@@jamesalbus7991 True!
I've got a really important announcement at the end of the video so stay tuned.
ME: SKIPS
WAIT THAT'S ILLEGAL!
i am going to join the jam to get some free content
I had the same problem when I first started making games over 15 years ago - Having incredibly ambitious projects that never got finished, until I participated in my first ever game jam. Glad to know you followed a similar path. Great video, keep up the good work.
Thank you for this video! I wish you great vacation!
You are the most profuse of the Unite program. I hope that the videos will be translated into Arabic. So that we can fully understand. 👍👍🙂🙂
I think you should do more lives of you making games or another make a game series...
Or just post two videos a week that's good too😁
Great video. Thanks for sharing details about your experience.
I’m so inspired by your journey and the hardwork you put on.
Well, I have 2 weeks of experience.
*GOES TO UDEMY*
lollll
Same I just bought some game dev bundle too xD
@@oliverscott6913 Yep, both share common interests. Good luck for the jam :)
@@oliverscott6913 This is my first jam
@@tastybass9050 u2 :D
Wich Keyboard yoy have?
the How to Make a Survival Game tutorials were how I got started making games. Damn it's been a while, thanks for getting me started Brackeys :)
Literally, as you began to list the people helping with the game jam I just progressively said OMG louder. All of you have helped me realize my love for this industry and I would not be where I am today without you guys. Thank you so much.
Brackeys : i was creating games for at least 10 years
*me who thought that i can create a game that will get really famous but i can't EVEN do the debug*
@@magmaspartan296 it's making the movement of the player
Watch the tutorials from brackeys: how to make a videogame
Then learn how animations work and the asset store etc
It's probably not your calling 😂
For me I stopped using unity but I will still learn c# since I only have 4gb ram. I'm not making my laptop suffer
3:03 HOLY SHIT ITS THAT GAME OMG I REMEMBER PLAYNG IT WHEN I WAS 10!!
Yeah Kill Pill is a classic!
Gotta love this guy, his videos have taught me so many things that I already forgot half of it but his videos are so entertaining that I don't mind watching them as many times as I need to to understand or remember something X3
We would love to participate in the jam, but we are traveling those days!! 😭😭😭 Very motivational hearing your story, feels quite familiar to how our past in game dev was as well. 😅
I am a new game dev, and your videos and story inspired me to make my own games. Your videos are detailed and easy to understand. We are all lucky to have a RUclips channel that can help us on our game dev Journey. (Btw if you guys want, sub to my channel because soon I will be posting videos of my own game and It will be helpful if I get feedback. Thx in advance.) Also can’t wait for the the game jam!!! 😎😁👾
Can’t wait to see your game
👾🎮👾👾👾👾👾🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮👾👾🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮👾👾🎮😁😎
That's awesome! I subbed! What's your game gonna be about (or should i just wait for the video :D)?
@@TonsOfHunStudios btw the video should be out like next week
@@botrandomness Sweet!
Let’s like it....
Oh I already did it?
Gj subconscious
Haha it's instinct at this point!
It's been over a year since i last launched unity because i needed to focus on collage. I have been planning to get back to it for a while now since it's vacation and this video gave me the push i needed
enough time to get back into it in time for the jam, Hell yeah!!
I work a full time job, so week-long jams are pretty much impossible for me unfortunately, but I will definitely be on the lookout for any 24-48h jams in the future. Great video!
I also tried making a game engine from scratch 😂😂😂😂
Its pretty ez
@@beProsto no it's not. I am working on a game engine currently and you have to manually create asset pipelines, shader interpretation, vertex specifications, etc.
@@beProsto If it's easy for you and not even professional industry developers, then you are either a god tier programmer or you are spewing bullshit. My bet's on the latter.
I'm offended this was finally shown to me in October. Algorithm fail
I'm super excited for the Community Game Jam!
thanks Brackeys for cheering us up :D sharing your mistakes which seem alike our mistakes , and not regret doing unfinished projects which all have that kind of project , keep up the good work man , greetings
Can you participate in the jam without a game engine? (Only programming)
I asked somewhat similiar question. The anwser is yes.
7:46 - DUDE I NEED THAT GAME. ANYONE HAS IT? I CANT FIND THE CREATOR!!

You are welcome
Only on windows
@@Pxlarizar THANKS SO MUCH!!
You’re welcome
All good advice. I think it's important throughout a project to make time to do a retrospective. It's important to evaluate what you've done and decide whether it's worth pursuing or not.
You are the person who taught me the basics of C#, thank you so much for all these videos
I really like your channel, My friend and I call you "Jesus"
Hey Brackeys,
You mentioned you lost data because you had no backups. I also lost so much files but still dont know how to save them correctly. Would be great if you make a Video how to save you work progress :D
Just copy all the files of the project into another folder or on google drive or something. That's basically backup. It's super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Yes same as MaoltsMe I use Google Drive as well for my files. Modeling and programming.
Use source control. Check out Bitbucket and SourceTree.
@@JanTuts How can I use the source control? Any Information website or a video?
@@tidragolol4438 there's probably a tutorial on the SourceTree website
Thanks for summing up pretty much of the experience I've gotten when developing Silversword and Lootbox RPG :-)
I follow you for around a year now and your videos helped me so much to learn about the Unity engine. I agree with all the things you said an I just wanted to say thank you. My project is still in development and there is still planned a lot of content but it all started with your videos. I just enjoy it to be creative and thats the most important point i guess.
Yes, Brackeys is a huge inspiration to me as well! What's your game about?
@@TonsOfHunStudios So true, I love motivated people like him or anybody else with personal targets. If you are interested in what I am doing feel free to visit my homepage: arrivalofbeasts.com

What I Learned After a Year of Game Dev is ..... You will Never Learn Everything.
PS : I Really Know How PAINFUL Wirting ur own Game Engine is, Writing a Math Library, A Renderer , A VFS (Virtual File System), Integrating a Scripting Language, ECS, ... etc 😵. But I will Go For It. Gonna Participate in the Jam 😄😄
Do remember that you don't have to do everything from scratch. Often it's more motivating to actually see something happen on screen. Good luck, I'd love to see a snapshot of what you've made :D
@@nielsvs2203 Actually all I Have is a Blank Window (Not Even a Triangle), Because I Haven't Touched the Renderer yet, I Have been Planing the Engine Architecture for a long time and Just Started Coding 20 Days ago. if u are Interested in the Engine u Can Check its Repository on Github : github.com/AhmadMamdouhEnan/Neux. Thanks alot for ur Comment 😃
A good architecture is the key to a healthy project, I can't tell you how many times I've seen engines implode because there wasn't a good architecture. Seems like you're on the right track
So excited for the jam :D
Your "make a game" series was one of the first games I actually finished making.
I took a online game development course which was crap then found you and completed that and then decided to go to college and make video games :) I now make games from home due to health.
