Hey, folks! My son (currently 15) is interested in getting into game development. He’s taken a class in Python in school and enjoyed it, but I know Python won’t be enough. I don’t think he’s interested in ever making big, AAA games, but more along the lines of Undertale (which was made in Game Maker Studio) or Bug Fables (Unity).
There are just so many choices and so much content out there that I don’t know where to start. Do you have any suggestions for which language(s) to learn or software (like Game Maker Studio) that you’ve found helpful? Thanks!
Godot is opensource and uses a scripting language pretty similar to Python.
That’s two votes for Godot – we’ll take a look into that!
Adding this here so you’ll see it, but Humble Bundle has a huge python book bundle going on right now.
