I've been using Gotham chess quite a bit, bought the beginner boot camp.   I have been sticking to the London except in a few unrated 10 minute games where I have a few set opening moves I want to try.

I seem to start out OK developing my pieces and trying to get control of the center but when I make the transition into the middle game it seems that everything falls apart.
I do puzzles every day to try to improve upon my tactics. Just starting to get frustrated. Any advice? I am doing mostly daily games so I’m not rushed and can study the board better.

Can you post a game with your thoughts on it? If you don't remember enough about a previous game, try it on your next game, when the memories would hopefully be fresh. Also, probably better to play a slower rapid time control such as 15-10. Gives you more time to think. Looking for things such as what pieces can take each other, and how many pieces are ready to take it, is a handy tool. If you've seen a lot of YouTube videos, I'd imagine you've probably gotten more than enough information to get far enough, but just need to figure out how to implement it.
