I had thought about this today. When I was young, I would endlessly draw pictures for my future games. My parents pushed me into a different career path. Now I’m 34, have a child and coding my first game as a hobby. Video games are the media of my generation.
It’s a hobby, honestly I would have never tries but my friend convinced me to just try it. I used the free Gscript starter app and KidsCanCode. Both are excellent resources that are designed to teach basics. Both are free as well and many months later im figuring it out as I go.

Congrats! And best of luck on your new projects - both child and game. 👍 ( kidding of course, a child is not merely a “project”) 😜
Is programming your profession?
I’ve always thought it would be a fun hobby project, but I know I’d have to learn everything from scratch
