    Yo yo yo
    I recently got an idea for a game, and it would be like a endless game like Alto's Adventures but I don't know where to start in Unity. I have no experience in Unity, I'm basically like a retarded human being right now. So if someone could give me some guidelines on how to make an endless game like Alto's Aventures it would be frikin awesome :D

    This is the easiest way to jump start yourself into Unity. They provide tutorials on specific programming functions and things of the like as well. There are also a billion tutorials on YouTube for various things.

    Worry about that after you learn. By that stage you will know what to do to do an Android build of your project. You are going to be building & doing initial testing on your PC anyway. Don't think it's going to be a quick & simple process, it's going to take a while to work out how to do everything you are wanting to do in your game.

    Good luck with it. I enjoyed Alto for a long time. .. One thing though, they took like 1-2 years to make it. And had a team. And it involves a lot of procedural programming/scripting which is not something easy to get your head around even with a lot of programming experience. Its a cool game, yes.. but it's not really an 'easy' game to develop. Not as easy as it looks.

    It's a Unity game I believe. If you want to do procedural content you have to either a) use an off-the-shelf procedural toolkit (asset store?) OR do lots of custom programming.

    @imaginaryhuman Well mate as s****t as I am in Unity and programming, I'll try basically to do something I made up in my head. I'll go from scratch because I know exactly what I want to do.
