Ask HN: I dream to build my own game by myself, but I'm not becoming proficient
I am a teacher, but I previously worked in finance and know a little SQL and C# from that past job. That said, I don't have particular aptitude for software engineering. In fact, I'm a slow learner and overwhelmed by large amounts of information. I'm better-suited to learning concepts and problem solving. So that said, with past work wth C# and SQL, it seemed like nothing ever made much sense and a lot of engineering felt more like configuration--reading documentation or googling. This was very frustrating and unrewarding to me.
I want to learn how to do it literally to build my own game by myself--for this to be my life's work--but I feel like I'm not learning as much nor gaining the aptitude I should have from thus far doing tutorials in Python or with Unity/C#.
