Where to Learn Lua

Hello,
Recently I’ve been attempting to teach myself Lua.
However, there are so many concepts to cover and was wondering what is the best way to learn what I need to in order to make my own game.
Where did you all learn specifically?
Thanks

I am still in the phases of learning basic LUA myself I suggest going on youtube, finding a playlist and visist around 4 episodes daily perhaps, [smaller or bigger depending how confident you are or how good your memory is] then keep rewatching them over and over until you are able to remember the code without going to those video[s] and then move on like that.

Just script, do tutorials, try new things… it takes years… no way around that.

I did the same thing just did tutorials when making a small game. Looked up simple tutorials on what I was working on then after awhile it just clicked.

Use youtube tutorials to start. Dont try to make a big game right away, this was a mistake i made. Start small, learn concepts, then go for your big project. Also, utilizing the devforum has definitely been useful for me.

I would say the biggest peice of advice id give you is to learn the basics. I literally used to just look up tutorials for whatever i wanted to make, this was not a good idea :slight_smile:

Anyways, good luck on your journey
