There are a lot of factors that affect your completion time of game. Like: How much time a day you give, how much time does it take to think about algorithms, how much time you take to actually type the code. So, i don't think anybody can give you time of creating a game.

It may depend on your prior knowledge, your ability to remember concepts, your ability to mentally connect what you learnt with what you want to do in the game, your skills at research and ability to follow documentation etc. So it can range from a few hours to a few weeks perhaps.

You need proper tools like Unity,unreal engine etc. and provided you have the skills. It can take somewhere around 1 hour to make a simple game. I use unity therefore C# I just made a game of a rolling ball nothing else, playable on android. Just 15-20 lines of code. so yeah just an hour.

PouryaDB I'm Kushang Shah. Actually I am not sure about what you are trying to say about finish all javascript courses. So, there are two conditions... if(all course == js no frameworks) { With the help of simple js, you have to think of game physics, algorithm and also some graphic works. Like in simple🐍 game, the shape of apple and one part of snake. It will hardly take half an hour for graphics. If you code consistently then in approximately 2 days you will be a snake game developer. I coded a bounce the ball game in one day whic is easier than snake game. } else if(all course == js and frameworks) { frameworks makes things better. Js gaming framework like PhaserJs is making game development easy. They have their own physics and better controlling functions. I developed a snake game using PhaserJs framework in around 3 hours. If I can do this then anyone can do this. You can see it in here https://github.com/Kelta-King/Snake-Game It is there on my GitHub profile. } I hope this gives your answer.

It depends upon your strategy to make a game. If you work for 5 hours per day a simple game can me makes within 7 days. It also depends upon your skills regarded games coding. This would refresh your knowledge. For making a simple game like snake if you are starting from yourself it will take at least 3 days For further information regarded to a making of a game Just click on the link so that you can understand the concepts too. - https://hackr.io/blog/how-to-code-a-game/amp#aoh=15906576091886&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From%20%251%24s Rock the code🤟🤟🤟🤟

Firstly, try to make think about details and how game will run . Then, make an algorithm about what you need . After that, go to your editor and start applying the algorithm . If you have any difficulties , do a search on Google or YouTube . There a lot of good channels to help you know all tricks of JS . If you still row in JS you can use one of js libraries like P5.js , react or Vue.js .
