Default help, car revvs but barely moves

i can turn my car on, and move it, but when in gear it seems as though the clutch is slipping, and clutch smell is everywhere. any diagnosis on this?

If you are smelling clutch and it's not moving then your clutch is completely burnt out. Time to get a new clutch.

The heat was probably just building up. In any case, you need a new clutch.
