!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we donโt take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

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.
Congrats! And best of luck on your new projects - both child and game. ๐ ( kidding of course, a child is not merely a "project") ๐
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
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.

Awesome, thanks!
Good luck bud! Don't get discouraged its not a destination but a journey. I learn new things every day!
