Hi everyone Today I officially started my learning journey with Unity. I spent the whole morning exploring the basics: a bit of 3D, a bit of 2D, and even tried Godot out of curiosity. My long term goal is to create simple 2D games (maybe even start by replicating a small stickman-style game just to learn). For now, I’m treating this as a hobby, but I don’t rule out taking it more seriously in the future.

However, there’s something that learning paths don’t usually teach you:

how to stay motivated

how to deal with frustration when things get hard

how to avoid losing enthusiasm or giving up

I know there may be a point where I lose motivation or feel like I’m not progressing fast enough, so I’d love to hear real experiences from people who have already gone through this.

My questions for you

How did you stay motivated when you were starting out?

What do you wish you had known at the beginning?

What would you recommend to someone who literally downloaded Unity today?

How do you avoid frustration or giving up too quickly?

I really appreciate any advice or experience you’re willing to share

Thanks for reading and for your help!
