Learning Unity and C#: part 1

It has been a long road to here

After years and years of thinking about it and a couple of false starts, I am finally doing something that feels real and legitimate in my quest to make the Awesome Theory into an actual game that really exists somewhere besides in my head. Around 4 months ago in a Discord channel that I hang out in, someone posted a C#/Unity class that was good/popular and on sale for $10. I immediately bought it, left it open in a tab, and did nothing with it for months. After 3 1/2 months, I finally started it and my first impressions are that it is great! I am learning quickly and have even started making my first game as a part of the course. It is a brick breaker game that the course is using to teach us physics and the Unity engine. I've always liked brick breaker games, so this is a neat experience. It is not done yet, and it will only be a super basic variant of it, but it is progress nonetheless.
