Are there any pointers or resources you can give me to start out that can point me to the right direction to learn GDScript? I have no experience in coding in general and I’m looking to get started with Godot and using GDScript. Thank you.

This is really good advice. I'd say try to pick up the basics by following along with a tutorial or two so you understand the syntax and core concepts and then move on to implementing some simple gameplay mechanics that you're interested in. I've seen people fall into an endless loop of doing tutorials, but without having an actual reason to keep pushing yourself it's easy to lose motivation.

Making games can be incredibly rewarding - it's all about getting into that positive feedback loop by seeing progress on projects you care about.
