I have recently started learing C#. I have learned all the basic things like text, loops, logic, input. (Barnacules Codegasm series up to ep3). I now want to get into games making with the language but I cant find any youtube tutorials that start from the beginning (They all seem to have an extra window inside there IDE) or they have no sound and therefore aren't explaining anything. Does anyone know a good C# games tutorial preferably video, but could be text if it is good. Thanks in advance.

 

TL;DR: Need a C# games tutorial because the YT ones suck

I actually didn't think about them. I just checked now though and there are none for C#. :(

Learn XNA or SDL. Both are great game libraries for C#.

Do you know any good tutorials?

Sorry, I didn't mean SDL. I meant SlimDX. 

 

Duality is also a good one, but I haven't researched it extensively.

Also, make sure you've dabbled into OOP a bit before starting. It will help a lot

That video you linked. I looked at that, it was one of the "No voice and I am basically just coding on youtube" ones. More of a development diary than tutorial. Also, i have done OOP with python before, like a lot of python

Hey if your trying to make games in unity ETeeski Tutorials on youtube is really good :) I love them now I'm taking a course on udemy but his tutorials are highly recommended.

I cant find any of his videos that are for C#. Are his Unity ones using C#? All there is that i can see is "Java script or C# for unity 3d"

Dev diaries and logs can make great tutorials because you actually see how the coding is applied in the real world.

 

There are other ones, but I'm sure you can search for them on YT. XNA is a good framework, but if you want an actual engine, I would say Unity or TorqueX since both revolve around C#

They will be great eventually, but for now because I know next to nothing then they aren't any help. I need someone to just explain everything, then later I can watch game dev streams.

Yes his unity guide is using c# sorry for the confusion :)!

Ahh, thanks. I've always thought unity was a game creation engine that you used without programming. I guess I was wrong.

I suggest you use Unity.
