My clutch pedal has a lot of play, no pressure until fairly close to floor, was driving with it doing this. Sometimes car would judder (no clue to as why that is). Now the clutch does not engage on/off, and cannot get into gear. No detected leaks from master or slave cylinder but very suspect of the two, or new clutch all together. Not sure. Help!

I would suspect a worn out clutch. Judder could easily be from low pressure on the worn clutch. How long has it been since the clutch was last serviced? What does the slave cylinder do if you pump the clutch?

No idea about last service to clutch, though I highly suspected wear on it. Trying to not think about a new clutch but seems like it will be the case yeah? The slave cylinder is standard, pumps when pedal does. Going to bleed slave when I have a mate to give a hand, then if no pressure still then definitely need a fresh clutch is worth searching for.

It does sounds like the clutch is worn, but have you checked the adjustment at the master cylinder push rod? Here is a guide to help:
