As a person that has a lot of ideas and no coding or art knowledge, it sucks because I know I can't expect someone else to do it for me and I don't have the time or mental capacity to learn. I guess I can just have AI do it for me now /s

Same here, I have one idea for a simple 2D game that I would like to make just so it exists. I even got myself Unity (before they stopped being cool) and tried to do some tutorials, but I just don't have what it takes.

If you still want to make the game despite that, I'd recommend watching some of Pirate Software's youtube shorts for motivation. He's got some great gamedev advice.

This one that he uploaded today feels relevant: https://youtube.com/shorts/TBxhiw-Hpxc

I'll hold myself back from sharing more for now, in case you don't care. And also because it's 3 am.
