I’d suggest looking into the following which are all essential in a modern age of game development.

  • Events
  • If Statments
  • Remote Events
  • Script types and uses (local/server)
  • Object manipulation

Pretty much the basics, missing a few things but once you know all of them you can progress onto bigger things. If you learn better taking guidence from others then I’d use YouTube tutorials (AlvinBlox, TheDevKing are both good in my experience) Otherwise, some people find it perfectly fine to reference from the developer API page, linked below. DM me if you get stuck i’ll help.

Anyway, good luck.
