    You can:
    • learn to code
    • rent a coder
    • rent someone who can make something if you can't make anything
    • go for a walk
    • have a drink
    • eat some cake
    • give up
    • don't give up
    Those are my ideas, so you can pick one or maybe someone will have better ideas. Personally I would choose option called "learn to code" - sounds like most fun way if you want to make games yourself.

    Sounds to me like you may have become frustrated by not being able to accomplish your current game idea.

    This happens to us all (I imagine), most often when we first start out in game programming, usually because our project goals are beyond our current programming knowledge.

    My advice, if indeed that is the situation you are in, is to aim for smaller more simple projects to start with, so that you can finish them, and as you learn new things, you will be able to tackle more elaborate projects.

    Find another hobby?

    Are you a child? because when someone acts entirely helpless on a public forum, it will usually indicate a non adult level of experience. If you are a minor, then you could ask a parent or guardian to assist you.

    If you're not a minor, then I suggest you pull your socks up fast because that attitude will get you nowhere.

    Don't talk down to the kid guys.

    Be more specific when asking questions, we don't know entirely what you mean by not being able to make anything in unity. If you just downloaded unity today and have no clue what to do, you should always watch tutorials. I recommend watching tutorials on getting to know the editor first, when you do then thats when I would start watching a series on how to make like a platformer or etc. NOT Something like an FPS game that for a beginner is wayyyyy over there heads. Like Munchy said, start simple.

    From looking at your past posts and threads, it seems as if you know how to use unity but you have almost no clue on what most of these terms are. Either your being a troll or you really have no clue on what these terms mean.

    I would watch tutorials and read a lot of the documentation to get to know everything about the engine first. Beginning to learn something is always the hardest part, like learning an instrument. Really hard at first and you won't see as much results, but keep practicing and doing it then you'll see results and get better. Its painful at first but if you have enough willingness and dedication, you'll get there :)

    Why do people even bother responding to these threads? The guy is clearly a troll by looking at his history. He's been trolling since March. He claims he doesn't know how to program, but yet compares various code editing programs in previous threads.
    There's other posts on forums from people that need actual help
    I'm surprised these threads don't get locked down as soon as they appear.

    Because giving people the benefit of the doubt isn't a bad thing.
