Hi Mineshark, and welcome to the community. I highly recommend that you just dive straight in and start experimenting with the game engine. Have fun making mistakes, and learning from them. There are also a lot of tutorials available in this community. If you really get stomped, you can list your questions, in MV Support. Here is one of my biggest suggestions, that I wish I did early on. Why not make a few small games BEFORE tackling a real big one. You can put your game ideas in Projects Under Development, and will give recommendations and constructive criticism, if you desire.
