    Game development is a combination of lots of skills. I still haven't shipped a project. Why? Because my skills are great in some areas (level design, game design, UI etc...) and some things I don't know well (animation, advanced graphics). As a beginner, you'll need to get a basic concept of the engine and how to work in it.

    Unity has great tutorials. First do the Roll a Ball tutorial, it will give you a great feel of the engine. Then you can get into the scripting docs for specific things you want to do.

    Please don't ask "How to make a full project". My tolerance level is very high, but most other people will not answer such questions like this.

    I did do Roll a Ball

    And I'm sorry if that is what it seemed like, I was just asking if there's a way I could Atleast get started with it. Because I've done roll-a-ball. Just I don't wanna take a step back and do something very simple.

    If you don't want to take a step back, then do a step forward. Move to the next level. Watch some tutorials at YT. There are quite a lot of tutorials that describes more advanced things, especially in English.

    List of YT channels:

    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtQPCnbIB7SP_gM1Xtv8bDQ

    Many, many more...

    I agree with DroidifyDevs's words. Also, if you ask such kind of questions then it means that you are still not ready, in my opinion.

    But good luck ;)

    Oh and don't forget Brackeys! https://www.youtube.com/user/Brackeys/videos
    He has a tutorial for just about anything, and he also has playlists where he makes entire games and shows you how he does it step-by-step, explaining everything. By far my favorite Unity YouTuber.

    @JeffHardddyyy Why you don't want to step back and do something simple? First make a simple project, then make more and more difficult projects. You can't start straight from the hard stuff. It's like saying "I want to be a pilot, but I don't want to fly in the simulator, I want to fly SU-35's RIGHT NOW".

    I made that mistake too, I have about 30 projects. The first 10 were way too difficult for my beginner level, so then I scaled back and my last 10 prototypes are mostly functional games. Start from an easy project, and move up.

    By step back, I mean something that I learn nothing from doing it, like I don't wanna make a game where when I'm done I'm like "I learned nothing" I try to keep on learning, but I've been watching Brackeys! Thanks for letting me know.
