So i struggle with learning new things but i think i can manage but its hard because it feels like i need someone to hold my hand or give me a powerpoint about something new. im dying to make a video game or something and i think maybe visual novels are the way to go because i also want to tell a story even if its lame. my interest seem to change alot but how do i learn renpy without getting overwhelmed? i havent even open the software yet because im afraid of failing also ive only used a little of unreal engine 4 intill i relised it was overheating my pc and its slow. ive probably used something else like scratch but i forgot.

Hey thanks for sharing your experience. I really liked the "I write a blog about what I learned." part. I am definitely going to implement this in my learning sessions from here on out. I love teaching others and I'm guessing writing about what I learned while trying to explain that will also help me get a better understanding of the topic.

You're welcome. I got pretty good at being self-aware of how to learn. It comes from being on the autism spectrum and having had to learn how to learn whereas most people kind of get that it naturally.
