Learning to code...

Question

So I am almost done with the javascript but I still don't really understand how I would create a game. On some of the other websites that I have tried out it looks like it would take much longer. I just want to know if that when I finish the course will that be most of all I need to know to create programs?

Thanks!

Good question.
Yes.
You need to know how to create programs to create games, because games are programs. you need to know the basics for making simple games. example:
if you want your character to grow when you touch an item, use conditional check and variable assignment.

Hero {
   Life: 40;
   Height 20;
}

if (collision (item, Hero)) {
   Hero.Height + = 10;
}

// now the height is 30 if collision is true

Tip:
always practice while you are making a course, try to make small programs with what you already know at the end of each module before moving on to the next module.
