Swords and Shovels: where to begin?

I have found this "Swords and Shovels" tutorial project in Unity Learn pretty interesting as it supposedly teaches how to create a top down RPG.

However this tutorial is not presented as a linear sequence of videos. Each video seem to be somewhat independent from the whole focusing in specific topics.

Assuming I want to build the "Swords and Shovels" from the beginning and only interested in programming how should I take the course? Which video is to be watched first?

 

They broke it down into 4 'tracks', one of which is 'fundamentals', the other 3 of which are more discipline-oriented (artist, programmer, designer) as per

https://unity.com/learn/swordsandshovels

So fundamentals track videos in the order listed, if required, then programmer track?

 

Ye I guess, but where can I access those tracks?

 

Just google the individual titles and go to the version on Unity Learn, not Pluralsight.

Or dig through the Projects section of Unity Learn

https://learn.unity.com/projects/?k=["lang:en","q:shovels"]&ob=starts

FWIW, the organisation and 'discoverability' of Unity Learn is somewhat impenetrable.

Also; S&S is a bit old; best to make sure you use a version of Unity that matches the tutorials, ie 2018.whateveritis

 

Oh I see, thanks for pointing that.
I sincerely hate this new unity learn platform. It's hard to find anything I want.
I was just looking for those project-based programming tutorials but unfortunately I found this brick wall...

 

You can find the Junior programmer pathway here:

In particular the Programming Systems and Architecture mission contains a lots of Swords and Shovels: https://learn.unity.com/mission/programming-systems-and-architecture
These projects are also Swords and shovels related:

I hope this helps.
