so i´ve always wanted to learn how to develop a game and this last few days ive tried learning godot. I´ve managed to finish gdquest´s course on gdscript, "Learn GDscript from zero" and when starting the "Getting started with Godot in 2021" I wasn´t able to follow the tutorials, not because i wasn´t smart enough but because they were made on godot 3 and I was on godot 4. What should i do now? Should I search for courses made for godot 4 or should i try to downgrade my engine to godot 3 so I´m able to follow the tutorial series. Any help would be greatly aprecciated. Thanks!!!

By and large, the tutorial for godot 3 is applicable for godot 4 with some differences. If you can't figure out what is different in godot 4 than in godot 3, then you can either ask here in discord to figure out what changed (with concrete questions of how X changed from v3 to v4), or you could search for a tutorial for godot 4. You could downgrade to godot 3, but I don't think there are that many differences in the interface and in the concept (signals still work the same, nodes and scenes still are the same thing, etc), although there are some changes in how you need to write certain methods (the signal connecting via code is different for example)
TL;DR either ask help to decipher what changed and finish the tutorial series you're at right now, or look for a godot 4 tutorial (I heard the vampire survivor tutorial by gdquest is great)

okay, I´ll try the vampire surivor tutorial to get my feet wet and then I´ll continue with the tutorial series I started. Thanks!!
